Hello everyone. I’m linking a ‘date’, ie, ‘2025-01-09’ import from an API call into my app UITextfield. However, instead of a simple date text, I get ‘2025-01-01T13:30:00Z’. I’m trying to limit this textfield entry to the first 10 characters. I tried a number of ways, which didn’t work. I haven’t found any documentation online how to limit an API text field input to a fixed number of characters. Does anyone know how this is done? Thank you!

List what you tried that didn’t work so people don’t suggest things you already tried.
When you talk about limiting the text field to the first 10 character, do you just want to show the date and not the time? If the answer is Yes, take a look at the DateFormatter class. That class lets you control how dates look and what to show in a text field.

Thank you for this suggestion. Yes, I only want to show the date, and not the time. Let me look at the DateFormatter class and check if I can figure it out.
