Getting "Invalid Date pass to format" on iOS Chrome but not on Web

Hi @taylorhakes, so the issue is a matter of how different devices/browsers are able to work with date strings.

The issue seems to be when performing a parsing function on the Date

Specifically, some platforms (like certain mobile browsers) may not be able to parse date strings in the "MM-DD-YYYY" format. They expect the format "YYYY-MM-DD" instead. This discrepancy leads to the RangeError: Invalid date error.

A safer and more reliable approach is to manually parse date strings. Here is an example:

let parseDate = dateStr => { let [month, day, year] = dateStr.split('-').map(Number); return new Date(year, month - 1, day); };

this is what I ended up implementing on my end. Hope it helps. If I find the time to look into the library and find where you are parsing the other way, such as:

let formatDate = date => date.toISOString().slice(0,10);

... I will open a pull request for you to merge.

I don't have time to debug this issue unfortunately. If you are able to find the issue and provide a fix, I will happily merge it
