The bug

I've noticed that on the mobile application, the days and months don't contain a capital letter on the first letter if our phone isn't in English.

I've tried switching the phone to French and German and the problem is identical.

@ferrybig commented on GitHub (Apr 24, 2025):

Adding some context:

In many European languages, (like France,German, Dutch) the months do not start with an upper case letter. However, those locales do follow the convention to start sentences with an uppercase letter. Note that some regions have dialects where the month names must start with an uppercase, but those are the exceptions to the rule.

If an sentence starts with a month name, because it is a sentence, the month is now written with an uppercase letter. (this is where the bug is, Immich never properly capitalizes the headings to make the first letter an uppercase)

The first screenshot should become:

Avril
20 avr. - 3 avr.

In German, months are capitalized in every context. So no matter if it's Februar or Feb., because it's a noun, it's capitalized. For French and Dutch you're correct though.

Just to be clear: This is only in the mobile app (not the web client), and the fix would be to capitalize the month?

(implementation: It probably suffices to call https://api.flutter.dev/flutter/intl/toBeginningOfSentenceCase.html )

On the second part of the question, I'd say yes.

However, on the web client, there seems to be another problem. My browser is in English, and I just switched languages and locale around in the web app to check it, but it seems everything related to dates doesn't get changed in the front page. Reloading doesn't help, and clearing cookies just reverts it to browser locale.

On my phone, which is in German, I can also only see the German dates on the web front page.

I'll create a seperate issue for this.

I noticed the date formatting issue too while I was looking into this and fixed it in the same go. If you want to create another issue, tag me, so I can link the PR.

Thanks for the PR.

I wonder if we shouldn't do the same thing for the days of the week. On the web interface, the days start with a capital letter. That would make it possible to have uniformity between the two (web and mobile).

What do you think?

Sure, that could be done. To me, it's just a question of design. I can only speak for English and German, and neither language has the issue. So if some French users or another language that is affected could tell what feels most natural to them, that would be helpful.

I'm French 😊
And the most natural thing is to capitalise it. Like you, I couldn't say anything about other languages.
