Creation date of the iOS keychain item varies with the region (or time format) change
Hi everyone, My mobile app has a logic to store several items in the iOS keychain. While getting the creation date of the item, by using the kSecAttrCreationDate attribute and its description property, I notice that the value is susceptible to the region (or time format) change. Interestingly, it only happens to some regions, not all. For example, when I change the region to Australia or Ireland, the creation date value changes due to the date format change. I actually expect the value to remain constant, as the official documentation does not mention about the region (or time format) change. Is it the expected behaviour? Are there any other settings besides the region (or time format) change could cause this? Thank you. Regards.
