IOS 13 current date not there/visible - urgent help please

Describe the bug NOW I saw it is only when ios13 dark mode is set!

Current date is not visible - or it is white not sure on IOS 13 the same code was working fine on IOS 12. On image you can see it’s only current date I moved year down and even not in focus it’s still white/not there.

Expected behavior That current date is visible.

To Reproduce

<DatePicker
                maximumDate={this.props.maximumDate}
                textColor={this.props.pickerColor}
                style={{width: this.props.screenWidth}}
                date={this.state.date}
                mode={this.props.mode}
                locale={this.state.locale}
                onDateChange={this.dateChanged}
              />

Smartphone (please complete the following information):

• OS: IOS 13, android work fine
• React Native version [e.g. 0.59.10]
• react-native-date-picker version 2.7.0

I’ve also got this to work, by changing:

- (UIView *)view
{
    return [DatePicker new];
}

in RNDatePickerManager.m to:

- (UIView *)view
{
    DatePicker *datePicker = [DatePicker new];
    
    if(@available(iOS 13, *)) {
        datePicker.overrideUserInterfaceStyle = UIUserInterfaceStyleLight;
    }

    return datePicker;
}

For a quick fix (accepting that you’ll disable dark mode for the component) that’ll work - I’ll revisit this when I have more time to see if there’s a fix that also allows for dark mode support!

Released a fix for this in 2.7.3

Not available this version.

This is “react-native-date-picker” library, not “react-native-datepicker”, I understand that the names can be confusing 😅
