hh:mm input

The website allows entering data in a format for times. The current (5.8) app does not. One must manually convert a time, say 10:25 to 10 + 25/60, entering 10.41666667 as the datapoint's value.

The app should provide a means for entering data as time (hh:mm) directly, similar to how the website does.

It may make sense to default to this type of input for goals with the property hhmmformat set to true.

The keyboard has a : on it, I'm not sure what you're suggesting that would go further than that.

Right you are! I am pretty sure I noticed then when digging into the project in the middle of past year while looking at the code. 😩 And yet I completely overlooked it recently while using the app, attempting to enter times.

What could we do instead? We could use a datepicker in time mode, perhaps show it by default as input for hhmmformatted goals and allow the user to cycle through the available input forms.

Adding the zzz label since the current interface is sufficient.

I agree. We can close this one since as you noted and as we see, the app does accept hh:mm as input. Another ticket can be made to address the other comments.
