Android Calendar View for Date Picker

by

Now, in 2014, even the native DatePicker (link) contains small Holo looking CalendarView (link) to pick a day in month.

You can choose, if both spinners and CalendarView or just one of them is displayed by setting:

  • android:calendarViewShown
  • android:spinnersShown

I’m not sure if it’s just API level 16+ or if it was even in Ice Cream Sandwich, but it’s there. This is how it looks by default:

Moreover, on API level 21 and higher there is a new Material themed DatePicker that looks like following:

This is default on API 21+ and there are no spinners anymore, but you can switch back to the Holo one by setting 

android:datePickerMode="spinner"

in your XML.
