    This should be how both the iPhone and Android app work at this point (please let us know if this is broken for you on either of those). We still have not fixed this issue on the website, though it is something we plan to do.

    Actually i18n is a well known problem in software development, and usually it can be solved in a clean way with modern developemtn languages/frameworks. Just have the locale as a setting in the profile of the user (best case: automatically guess it once the account is created from the current browser locale). And then apply that locale for every input and output. Okay I realize, once you have a stable app that is not i18n correctly, there is some refactoring needed to bake it into the app. But the longer you wait, the more expensive it gets (in a way this is technical debt, every application should respect the locale of the user). But I am sure you can manage it. This is a showstopper for most of my friends, as it is weird for them to use a dot instead of a comma.
