maxDate is not working on ios

Issue

When i’m using react-native-datepicker, maxDate properties working correctly in android but is not working on ios.

Code

                              <DatePicker
                                    style={{
                                    width: api.getRealDeviceWidth() * 0.9
                                }}
                                    date={this.state.dob}
                                    mode="date"
                                    placeholder="select date"
                                    format="YYYY-MM-DD"
                                    minDate={'1960-01-01'}
                                    maxDate={'1995-01-01'}
                                    confirmBtnText="Confirm"
                                    cancelBtnText="Cancel"
                                    showIcon={false}
                                    customStyles={{
                                    dateInput: {
                                        borderColor: '#cdcdcd',
                                        borderRadius: 2,
                                        height: 36
                                    },
                                    dateText: {
                                        textAlign: 'left',
                                        width: api.getRealDeviceWidth() * 0.9,
                                        padding: 12
                                    }
                                }}
                                    onDateChange={(date) => {
                                    this.setState({dob: date})
                                }}/>

Environment

keeping format of minDate and maxDate same as format of DatePicker, solved the problem for me.

@kamranyounis12 is right, the dates are compared via simple < and > comparison so you need to supply the dates in identical/comparable formats. I’m passing a native JS new Date() to each.
