Answer 1

Try specifying a locale when using the date value from the image picker

               var dateFormatter = new NSDateFormatter
                {
                    DateFormat = _dateFormatString
                };

                var enLocale = new NSLocale("en_US");
                dateFormatter.Locale = enLocale;

                sender.Text = dateFormatter.ToString(modalPicker.DatePicker.Date);
