Ion-datetime pickerFormat not formatting properly

Hello,

I am working with ion-datetime, attempting to format the picker the same as the display. My code is below:

<ion-datetime displayFormat="DDD h:mm a" pickerFormat="DDD h:mm a" [(ngModel)]="date" name="date"></ion-datetime>

The displayFormat works well, it displays Fri 8:10 pm, as an example, however when the user taps to change the time, the picker will not list the DDD format, only the number representation for the day. This problem exists for both chrome browser and Android device. I have search far and wide, and only came up with this:

https://forum.ionicframework.com/t/displayformat-not-working-with-full-name-day/65774

Is this still not supported for the pickerFormat, or could it be something else?

Thanks,

Rob
