Xcode - UIDatePicker background color

Question

My UIDatePicker's background is black (because the background for the whole screen is black probably), but I want white in the background for this UIDatePicker.

Is there any way to change the background color without subclassing it?

Answer 1

datePickerName.backgroundColor = [UIColor grayColor];

Answer 2

iOS 14 update

It looks that datePicker.backgroundColor doesn't work in iOS 14. It works. But you have to put it after preferredDatePickerStyle setting:

let picker = UIDatePicker()
if #available(iOS 13.4, *) {
    picker.preferredDatePickerStyle = .wheels
}
picker.backgroundColor = .red

Answer 3

OBJECTIVE C

datePicker.backgroundColor = [UIColor greenColor]

SWIFT

DatePicker.backgroundColor = UIColor.blueColor()
DatePicker.setValue(UIColor.greenColor(), forKeyPath: "textColor")
DatePicker.setValue(0.8, forKeyPath: "alpha")
