Add start and end time to date field in forms

The low functionality of the 'time' field embedded in the date fields is limiting our efficiency. We use a form to add an appointment request, which triggers an automation to create an event in Google Calendar. However, we need a start and end time to push that automation. Currently, we manually correct the start and end times for each record, which is error-prone. Adding a start time to the date field in the form would eliminate this manual entry and improve accuracy.

Hello David Pfeffer! Following up on this:
- Can you provide more details on how you currently use the 'time' field in the date fields?
- What is the average number of records you manually correct each day?
- Are there any specific formats or standards you follow for the start and end times?

Jon Darbyshire,
This was a form-only issue where the date field didn't contain a time value like it does in grid view, etc. The update two weeks ago fixed that so this issue is largely gone!
We're running into time zone issues in automations from SS-Make-Google Calendar but other than that it works well now.
Thank you for following up on this!
