Set custom date format on iOS I am using the iOS 9 beta and I am trying to change the date format to
dayofweek-dayofmonth-month-year. 

For example today would be: 


  Tuesday, 25 Aug 2015


In Settings I have looked under ‘Language &amp; Region’, and at the bottom of the page there is something that shows ‘Region Format Example’, but I cannot find a way to set a custom date format without changing my region (which still doesn't allow custom, but it will change it). 

Under ‘Date and Time’ there isn't anything either.
It's currently not possible to set a custom date format on iOS, unlike macOS. On iOS you can only change the date format by changing the region as you discovered.
