WhatsApp doesn't read the date format settings from Android's date format settings, but rather it adjusts the date format depending on the language set for the Android interface.

Solution:

  • If you want DD/MM/YY, change the language of Android to English (UK)
  • If you want MM/DD/YY, change the language of Android to English (USA)

Settings > Language & Input > Language (in the phone settings)
