Ismael, I had a chat with Chatgpt and we came up with this code.

// Voegt een custom calender icoon aan een data veld
 function ava_custom_calendar_icon_script() {
    ?>
    <style>
        .custom-date-wrapper {
            position: relative;
            display: inline-block;
            width: 100%;
        }

        .custom-date-wrapper input[type="date"] {
            width: 100%;
            padding-right: 40px; /* ruimte voor het icoon */
            position: relative;
            z-index: 2;
            background-color: #fff;
        }

        .custom-date-wrapper::after {
            content: "📅";
            position: absolute;
            right: 12px;
            top: 50%;
            transform: translateY(-50%);
            pointer-events: none;
            font-size: 20px;
            color: #888;
            z-index: 3;
        }
    </style>

    <script>
        function addCalendarIconToDateInputs(context = document) {
            context.querySelectorAll('input[type="date"]:not(.calendar-styled)').forEach(function (input) {
                if (input.closest('.custom-date-wrapper')) return;

                var wrapper = document.createElement('span');
                wrapper.className = 'custom-date-wrapper';

                input.classList.add('calendar-styled');

                input.parentNode.insertBefore(wrapper, input);
                wrapper.appendChild(input);
            });
        }

        document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', function () {
            addCalendarIconToDateInputs();

            // Contact Form 7 AJAX support
            document.addEventListener('wpcf7invalid', function (event) {
                addCalendarIconToDateInputs(event.target);
            });
            document.addEventListener('wpcf7submit', function (event) {
                addCalendarIconToDateInputs(event.target);
            });

            // Extra: hoogte instellen voor mobile
            if (window.matchMedia("(max-width: 768px)").matches) {
                document.querySelectorAll('input[type="date"]').forEach(function(input) {
                    input.style.height = '40px';
                    input.style.lineHeight = '40px'; // mooi gecentreerd
                });
            }
        });
    </script>
    <?php
}
add_action('wp_footer', 'ava_custom_calendar_icon_script', 9999); 

For now the height is the same as my other fields, and I have a calendar icon on my iphone.
The width of the field doens’t seem adapable.

Thanks for your response Ismael,
It shows me the same field as in the picture I’ve sent before.
When I remove “-webkit-appearance:none” it shows me an empty field without a calender pictrogram and a date format.

I have used the following code in my field
<p class=”first_form form_element form_element_half”
>Wanneer*<br/>[date* date-9 class:text_input]
</p>
So my field looks perfect on a pc and on Android.
Could it be that IOS blocks the datepicker settings?

When I use the code the field is smaller. Not quit visible.
