how to set the locale of datetime.timeformat to English so it does not return time in the current device language like Arabic?
01:23.45 instead of ۰۰:۰۳.۱۳

Thanks.

I'm using DateTime.TimeFormat = "mm:ss.SS"

The problem is if I set the device language to Arabic the time returned by datetime becomes Arabic numbers too.

This is what I'm going to do: Set locale in my app to US and then switch to Arabic only during text input then switch back to US right after, using this
B4X: 
Dim jo As JavaObject
jo.InitializeStatic("java.util.Locale").RunMethod("setDefault", Array(jo.GetField("US")))
