Change date format using NSDateFormatter

Question

I want to use date format like this 2015-08-14 but unfortunately I am getting this format 16/11/15

Below is the code I have used to get desired output.

NSDateFormatter *dateFormatter = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
[dateFormatter setDateFormat:@"yyyy-MM-dd"];

NSTimeZone *gmt = [NSTimeZone timeZoneWithAbbreviation:@"GMT"];
[dateFormatter setTimeZone:gmt];

[dateFormatter setDateStyle:kCFDateFormatterShortStyle];

NSString *formattedDateString = [dateFormatter stringFromDate:selectedDate];

Can anyone please suggest how to fix this issue?

Answer 1

Just remove the line [dateFormatter setDateStyle:NSDateFormatterShortStyle];
