The Android one always makes me chuckle when some obscure site decided to use it. It's so unexpected to get a big pop-up in an entirely different UI style as the rest of the website suddenly, and when I realize what monster I now have to fight, idk it's humorous to me. It also differs between versions but hasn't gotten better. I have gripes with Safari, but date pickers isn't one of the things only Safari struggles with. An image search for 'android date picker' brings up at least three different designs: https://i.stack.imgur.com/3DW4n.png https://i.stack.imgur.com/3DW4n.png https://i.stack.imgur.com/LLRmB.png https://i.stack.imgur.com/LLRmB.png https://i.stack.imgur.com/kJqln.png https://i.stack.imgur.com/kJqln.png

thanks for the screenshots It seems like the first screenshot is `type="time"` and the second and third are `type="date"`. But I don't know if those are native components or the browsers defaults. Would be useful information

And I think all three of those are out of date, the Android 13 one is totally different as well.

    I wish, I can get the screenshot but there's no easy way to get that on the internet
