Hello,

The inability for timepicker to accept more basic date formats has been identified [here](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/34674).

In the meantime, the formats accepted under `Add Filters` are a little more flexible accepting simpler formats and might work better for you. See this issue for a pretty good walkthrough: [How to use Date Range filter in Kibana?](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/how-to-use-date-range-filter-in-kibana/194751/2)

Regards,  
Aaron
