Hello @haiflosse,

If you are trying to set this to be a label, you can use the “Join” block found under the “Text” category in Thunkable to join the current Day, Month, Year, Hour, Minute and Second by joining what text you between each and using the “current” block which can be found under the “Device” section of your app. You can then have your app set a label to this information. However, if you want any date, you would have to have the Days, Months, etc. separated out to join them.

Best,  
Ian
