Could be a bug but the more likely explanation is that the field doesn't update until you try to leave it. So you put in a wrong date first, try to leave the field, get error message, then type in valid date and save a pic before leaving the field.

Do we have a community yet for IAm14AndThisIsFunny?
Another possible case no one seems to have mentioned. That the CSS doesn't do that kind of spacing automatically, and that the user manually put in spaces this creating an invalid date for the lulz.

Image Transcription:
A screenshot from the setup of the Remind mobile application with an image of a calendar and the text
"What is your birthday?
This will stay private to you and will help keep Remind safe
Birthday
DD/MM/YYYY"
Followed by a text field that has been filled out with the date "17 / 02 / 2008".
Below the text field is the red error text reading "Please enter a valid date"

I think it’s using the daft American date system of m/d/y

The only thing worse than mm/dd/yyyy is dd/mm/yyyy. Use a bloody different separator if you're writing dates correctly.
