Ive implemented a UIDatePicker in an app written in Swift. I can create an @action to trigger when the date changes unless the user uses the arrows in the upper right hand corner to change the month... I cant figure out how to capture that event. Any thoughts?

Let me assist @DoctorShredd...

You can approach it in a different way. For instance use what you were using before then check the iOS version...

Something like..

@objc func StartDateSelection(){

    if #available(iOS 13.4, *) {
        startdatePicker.isHidden = false
        tfStartDate.isHidden = true
        startdatePicker.datePickerMode = .date
        startdatePicker.preferredDatePickerStyle = UIDatePickerStyle.compact
        startdatePicker.addTarget(self, action: #selector(self.startDateChanged), for: .allEvents)
    }
    else{
        DatePickerDialog().show("From Date", doneButtonTitle: "Done", cancelButtonTitle: "Cancel", datePickerMode: .date) {
            (date) -> Void in
            if let dt = date {
                let formatter = DateFormatter()
                formatter.dateFormat = "dd/MM/yyyy"
                self.tfStartDate.text = formatter.string(from: dt)
            }
        }
    }
}

@objc func startDateChanged(){
    let formatter = DateFormatter()
    formatter.dateFormat = "dd/MM/yyyy"
    self.tfStartDate.text = formatter.string(from: (startdatePicker?.date)!)
}

Great Article. Not a question but just something to point out. Your post is displaying date of future (or are you a time traveller?). Today its 9th of July, 202 but your post is of 27th of July, 2020 :D

Thanks, I have fixed the date now.

Might be helpful to point out that you cannot change the .datePickerStyle directly, instead you must set .preferredDatePickerStyle

Thanks for bringing that to my attention. I will verify this and update the article accordingly.

Can we force the wheels picker on Safari by any chance?
