Answer 1

Using Combine:

struct CurrentDateView : View {
    @State var now = Date()

    let timer = Timer.publish(every: 1, on: .current, in: .common).autoconnect()

    var body: some View {
        Text("\(now)")
            .onReceive(timer) {
                self.now = Date()
            }
    }
}

Answer 2

i have managed to update text using alert.

i have declared date as State so whenever date is changed using alert text will also get updated.

struct CurrentDateView : View {
    @State var newDate = Date()

    let timer = Timer.publish(every: 1, on: .current, in: .common).autoconnect()

    var body: some View {
        Text("\(newDate)")
            .onReceive(timer) {
                self.newDate = Date()
            }
    }
}
