For output, use an NSDateFormatter. To extract values for other purposes, use NSDateComponents. eg:

NSDate *date = [NSDate dateWithTimeIntervalSince1970:1234567];
NSDateComponents *weekdayComponents = [[NSCalendar currentCalendar] components:NSWeekdayCalendarUnit fromDate:date];
int weekday = [weekdayComponents weekday];
