I had an issue as well, and I did some tries.
Currently adding this seems to help:

if (@available(iOS 13.4, *)){ self.datePicker.preferredDatePickerStyle = UIDatePickerStyleWheels; }

I added it in "updateDatePicker" function, before this code:

if (allowOldDates) { self.datePicker.minimumDate = nil; }

This returns the picker style back to 'wheel' style.

After the latest update from IOS this is fixed. Thanks

Hi @bhargavas12 could you give some more info about this? We have tens of users complain about the date picker, and we'd love to know in which iOS version this is fixed & how it was fixed. We were also unpleasantly surprised by this sudden design change...

Hi,
Did you upgrade the webview from UIWebview to WKWebview?
If not, this also makes issues in iOS 14 and also mandatory soon by apple.

Yes we do. We have the following in our config.xml, and are on cordova ios 6.1.1

    <preference name="WKWebViewOnly" value="true" />
    <feature name="CDVWKWebViewEngine">
        <param name="ios-package" value="CDVWKWebViewEngine" />
    </feature>

I see... I'm actually in cordova ios5.1.1 and with wkwebview plugin.
Sorry, I'm aware of other thing that you can check...

Thanks @bhargavas12. One more follow up question: how has it been fixed? Has the old date picker been restored?

FYI, we're still seeing this: https://youtu.be/wjtLiHZutbk. The user needs to click a few times to actually open the time picker. Also, if the date is smaller than min date, nothing happens.
