Can you type in values in a date filter?

We have an Experience Builder app to let our appraisers filter for residential sales with different parameters, but it seems like the Data filter won't let us type in values. It only seems to let us choose from the calendar picker, which can be a slower process if it's an older date.

Am I just missing a setting somewhere, or is this not possible?

It's in the first box here - it put in a cursor that makes it look like you can type but when you try tying it doesn't do anything.

@AndrewWallick Currently this is not possible in the Experience Builder date picker, since there are multiple time formats, yet not all of which are acceptable as valid input.

Oh, that't too bad. It would make my users' lives easier, as often that have to go back years to get the dates they want, and are changing the filters daily.

Thank you for you quick response in letting me know, though. I'll see if there's an ArcGIS Idea for it.

Andrew, did you find an Idea for it? I'm in the same boat and it's not exactly practical to ask folks to keep clicking back until the year they want.

Not one that addresses solely this issue, but I did comment on this one since it was a related idea.
