OLCI on Android app..fail

Why does CX's Android app make you scroll thru month by month to find your date of birth? It's damn annoying and after pressing the back button more than 100x , I'm losing my patience. In the end I just stuck a date at 2000. I'll get the airport check in to correct it later. But seriously? What is wrong with programming a proper app that you put in day, month and year separately?

I just went through that... it was CRAZY!

But my return flight checkin seemed to retain the date, so I only had to do it once.

Words can't describe the stupidity in that kind of implementation!

I tweeted to CX..

And they replied that the way to change the date is to click on the year ??

Has anyone tried that ?

Yes, I tried it on the app. Maybe it works on the website, but not on the app.
