Allows the user to select the date, time or both the date and time (iOS Only) from the native date picker on the mobile device.
Use the mobilePickDate command to display a native date-picker-wheel on iOS or a native date picker dialog on Android. They allow the user to select the date, the time or both the date and time (iOS Only).
On the iPhone, a standard Action Sheet pops up containing the standard date-picker-wheel user interface element. On the iPad, a standard pop-over is presented with a list to choose from.
There are three modes of operation of the mobilePickDate command, depending on the value of style. If style is set to "date" the date picker allows the user to select a date, starting from the current date or a parameter set date. If style is set to "time" the date picker allows the user to select a time, starting from the current time or a parameter set time. If style is set to "dateTime" (iOS Only) the date picker allows the user to select a date and time, starting from the current date and time or a parameter set date and time.
