Date Input

Date Input Overview

A Date Input component is helpful when you want the user of your app to easily select a specific date using the native Android or iOS date picker

Getting Started

The Date Input component needs no set-up (Woohoo!). Just drag and drop the component into your project. As a bonus, the current date will automatically show up as a label.

When a user of your app taps on the Date Input, it will automatically launch the native Android or iOS date pickers.

Set the Date Format

You can set the format of the date by choosing an option from the Style property. Currently supported styles are:

YYYY-MM-DD
MM/DD/YYYY
M/D/YY
Month Day, Year
Mth. Day, Year

Save the Date

The date that a user selects will show up automatically in the Date Input label but if you want to save the date somewhere to be uploaded later, you'll need to add a block like the one below.
