One suggestion.... Make it faster to skip back and set the start date, or allow manual entry. I'm not even that old but it's a lot of months to click backwards on Android.

I think it must be using the browser native control? The date picker was surprisingly great on iOS. Color picker, too.
I couldn't make the date picker work at all - the scroller kept snapping back to a previous position.
Ah, sorry about that. It is the native date picker as n8cpdx pointed out.

I just pushed an update to only update the grid of weeks once the date picker is unfocused (onblur event) rather than recomputing unnecessarily on every change event. I suspect that is what caused the bug you're describing, but let me know if it's still broken.

Yes, that fixed it. Thanks!

(I didn't know the browser had a native date picker.)

Great! Thanks for following up.

And yep, the browser date picker (https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/in...) is a major time saver. This project uses the native color picker, too.

Glad I'm not the only one!
On android I could click year and change that to gow old I am.
