Description of problem:

Step 1: I make audio observation (bird voice) by smartphone Xiaomi Redmi 5 threw it’s application “Диктофон” (Voice recorder, dictophone). It is pleasant that now appears possibility to upload record directly to iNaturalist and iNat allows dictophone recording format.

Step 2: But when trying create observation from dictophone to iNat - often this happens later (common mobile application observation creation interface) i can set Date but cannot set right Time of observation. I turn the arrow on the dial, but when I click OK, it is always set the current time.

Step 3: Exactly the same thing happens when I try to edit this time in a mobile application (Android). It is possible to edit this time only through the web interface (Win10, Chrome last version).

Are you still running into this issue with the more recent Android updates? I was able to and and modify the time of a sound observation in Android 1.21.5 (472).

Hi, time setting works OK now, thanks!
