@erikku,
Thanks for reaching out to us.
Can you tell me if you’re connecting though a VPN of any kind? Additionally, the latest Brave release is version 0.66.101 (at the time of writing this) – can you go to Menu --> About Brave and update the browser?

@erikku,
You should also check your regional settings on your macOS as well – make sure they’re actually set to France.

where Can I find those features I use mobile phone and that’s my problem.

@dhante2613,
I have responded to your original thread – please stop injecting your requests into other users topics.

Okay! Thank you. But my problem is not solve.

That fixed the issue, thanks @Mattches!
I would consider that a bug though. My OS language or the date format I use should not be a criteria here I reckon.
