Question

IF we set Property to UIDatePicker then user is unknown to actual date select it will store current date that main issue with using property...

Answer 1

Instead of that, you can use the minimumDate property of UIDatePicker. Set the minimumDate to current date, so your date picker don't allow the user to pick a past date.

[yourDatePicker setMinimumDate:[NSDate date]];

If you want to compare the date you can do it like:

NSDate *currentDate = [NSDate date];
if ([pickedDate currentDate] == NSOrderedDescending)
{
   // Picked date is lesser than current date
   // Show validation result
}
