Why are the days in the .inline style UIDatePicker not being localised when applying a locale to the datpicker?

Question

I am setting the locale of a UIDatePicker outlet to be Arabic and the preferred style to be inline as follows:

picker.locale = Locale(identifier: "ar_AE")
picker.preferredDatePickerStyle = .inline

The localisation is being applied to the month and year drop-down selection but not to the days of the calendar as shown in the screenshot below:

Answer 1

Set your locale to the picker.calendar.locale also, then you can get the weekdays in your desired locale

picker.locale = Locale(identifier: "ar_AE")
picker.calendar.locale = Locale(identifier: "ar_AE")
picker.preferredDatePickerStyle = .inline
