Timezone-aware "booked on" dates in Inbox filters

Problem statement

Currently, the "booked on" date filter in the Inbox uses UTC time, not the host's account timezone. This means bookings made late in the evening (e.g., 10:30 PM EST) appear under the next calendar day in filtered views, even though they were booked "today" in the host's local time.

Current workaround

Hosts must mentally adjust for the UTC offset when filtering by "booked on" date, or accept that late-evening bookings will appear under the wrong day in their local context.

Impact

  • Inaccurate reporting when trying to view bookings received "today" or on a specific date
  • Confusion when reconciling booking timestamps with calendar days
  • Extra manual effort to interpret data correctly

Proposed solution

Make the "booked on" filter respect the host's account timezone setting (e.g., EST, PST, etc.) so that bookings are grouped by the correct calendar day based on local time, not UTC.

Unlock

Hosts would be able to pull accurate same-day booking reports, filter by local calendar dates without mental math, and trust that "booked on" reflects their actual business day.
