DatePickerIOS

Use DatePickerIOS to render a date/time picker (selector) on iOS. This is a controlled component, so you must hook in to the onDateChange callback and update the date prop in order for the component to update, otherwise the user's change will be reverted immediately to reflect props.date as the source of truth.

DatePickerIOS has been merged with TimePickerAndroid and DatePickerAndroid into a single component called DateTimePicker and will be removed in a future release.

Example#

import React, { Component } from 'react';import { DatePickerIOS, View, StyleSheet } from 'react-native';
export default class App extends Component {  constructor(props) {    super(props);    this.state = { chosenDate: new Date() };
    this.setDate = this.setDate.bind(this);  }
  setDate(newDate) {    this.setState({ chosenDate: newDate });  }
  render() {    return (      <View style={styles.container}>        <DatePickerIOS          date={this.state.chosenDate}          onDateChange={this.setDate}        />      </View>    );  }}
const styles = StyleSheet.create({  container: {    flex: 1,    justifyContent: 'center'  }});

initialDate#

Provides an initial value that will change when the user starts selecting a date. It is useful for use-cases where you do not want to deal with listening to events and updating the date prop to keep the controlled state in sync. The controlled state has known bugs which causes it to go out of sync with native. The initialDate prop is intended to allow you to have native be source of truth.
