Android DatePickerDialog: Set min and max date for selection

I know there are quite a lot of question for this but none of the solutions are working for me, so this question. I want to restrict user to select date before today, but am not able to do so.

public class DatePickerDialogFragment extends DialogFragment {

    private OnDateSetListener listener;

    public void setListener(OnDateSetListener listener) {
        this.listener = listener;
    }

    @NonNull
    @Override
    public Dialog onCreateDialog(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        Calendar calendar = Calendar.getInstance();
        int year    = calendar.get(Calendar.YEAR);
        int month   = calendar.get(Calendar.MONTH);
        int day     = calendar.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH);

        DatePickerDialog dialog = new DatePickerDialog(getContext(), listener, year, month, day);
        dialog.getDatePicker().setMinDate(calendar.getTimeInMillis());
        return dialog;
    }
}

I am showing it as:

DatePickerDialogFragment fragment = new DatePickerDialogFragment();
fragment.setListener(dateSetListener);
fragment.show(getSupportFragmentManager(), "Choose booking date");

I want the user should not be able to select date before today. As you can see I called setMinDate() method with today's time but it as no effect. The dialog shows dates before today as grayed but selectable.

I also tried to sub-class DatePickerDialog and override onDateChanged as suggested in some stackoverflow answers but without any success.

Android DatePickerDialog: Set min and max date for selection to show allowed dates from 16 to 30 Aug 2022.

// Month is 0 based for Calendar.
final Calendar cMax = Calendar.getInstance();
// CMax.set(mYear, mMonth-1, mDay)
cMax.set(2022,7,30); // for date 30/Aug/2022
XXDatePicker.setMaxDate(cMax.getTimeInMillis());

final Calendar cMin = Calendar.getInstance();
// CMin.set(mYear, mMonth-1, mDay)
cMin.set(2022,7,16); // for date 16/Aug/2022
XXDatePicker.setMinDate(cMin.getTimeInMillis());

  mdate.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onClick(View v) {
            final Calendar calendar = Calendar.getInstance();
            //set time zone
            calendar.setTimeZone(TimeZone.getTimeZone("UTC"));

            int selectedYear = calendar.get(Calendar.YEAR);
            int selectedMonth = calendar.get(Calendar.MONTH);
            int selectedDay = calendar.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH);
            DatePickerDialog datePickerDialog = new DatePickerDialog(BrandResturant_DetailActivity.this,
                    new DatePickerDialog.OnDateSetListener() {
                        public void onDateSet(DatePicker view, int selectedYear,
                                              int selectedMonth, int selectedDay) {
                            mDay = selectedDay;
                            mMonth = selectedMonth;
                            mYear = selectedYear;
                            StringBuilder Date = new StringBuilder("");
                            String conver = Integer.toString(selectedYear);
                            Date.append(conver);
                            Date.append("-");
                            selectedMonth++;
                            conver = Integer.toString(selectedMonth);
                            Date.append(conver);
                            Date.append("-");
                            conver = Integer.toString(selectedDay);
                            Date.append(conver);
                            isDob = true;
                        }
                    }, mDay, mMonth, mYear);

            datePickerDialog.getDatePicker().setMaxDate(calendar.getTimeInMillis());


            
            //Getting Today date to calendar2
            final Calendar calendar2 = Calendar.getInstance();
            //Set Minimum date of calendar
            calendar2.set(2021, 1, 3);
            datePickerDialog.getDatePicker().setMinDate(calendar2.getTimeInMillis());
            datePickerDialog.setTitle("Select Date");
            datePickerDialog.show();


            //Getting Today date to calendar3
            final Calendar calendar3 = Calendar.getInstance();
            //Set Maximum date of calendar - Method 1
            calendar3.set(2021, 3, 3);
            //Set Maximum One Month date from today(calendar3) date to calendar -Method 2
            //In Place of month u can also set year, day
            //calendar3.add(Calendar.MONTH, 1);
            datePickerDialog.getDatePicker().setMaxDate(calendar3.getTimeInMillis());
            datePickerDialog.setTitle("Select Date");
            datePickerDialog.show();
        }
    });

In the XML File

<DatePicker
android:minDate="mm/dd/yyyy"
android:maxDate="mm/dd/yyyy" >

ex:

android:minDate="10/12/2000"


android:maxDate="10/12/2000"

I set the minimum date using the method to the current year which is 2020-05-20 like this

datePickerDialog.getDatePicker().setMinDate(calendar.getTimeInMillis());

The moment you click the date picker it displays 2020 as the minimum year

I hope the answer helps.

Try this method

@NonNull
@Override
public Dialog onCreateDialog(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    Calendar calendar = Calendar.getInstance();
    int year    = calendar.get(Calendar.YEAR);
    int month   = calendar.get(Calendar.MONTH);
    int day     = calendar.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH);

    DatePickerDialog dialog = new DatePickerDialog(getContext(), listener, year, month, day);
    Field mDatePickerField;
    try {
            mDatePickerField = dialog.getClass().getDeclaredField("mDatePicker");
            mDatePickerField.setAccessible(true);
    } catch (Exception e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
    }
    dialog.getDatePicker().setMinDate(System.currentTimeMillis() - 1000);
    return dialog;
}

instead of your

@NonNull
@Override
public Dialog onCreateDialog(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    Calendar calendar = Calendar.getInstance();
    int year    = calendar.get(Calendar.YEAR);
    int month   = calendar.get(Calendar.MONTH);
    int day     = calendar.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH);

    DatePickerDialog dialog = new DatePickerDialog(getContext(), listener, year, month, day);
    dialog.getDatePicker().setMinDate(calendar.getTimeInMillis());
    return dialog;
}

EDIT1:

I have also faced this issue that user can select not-selectable dates in Android L 5.0.2. Currently there is bug reported here. It is solved in Android L 5.1.0.

For temporary solution of this issue you can compare selected date with current system date and put some condition based on that. I used this as my workaround

EDIT2:

add onDateSent() method in DatePickerDialogFragment and just check if it's earlier than the date you set in setMinDate(). If so, then just show the DatePickerDialog again.

final long today = System.currentTimeMillis() - 1000;

@Override
public void onDateSet(DatePicker view, int year, int monthOfYear, int dayOfMonth) {
            Calendar calendar = Calendar.getInstance();
            calendar.set(year, monthOfYear, dayOfMonth);
            //If user tries to select date in past (or today)
            if (calendar.getTimeInMillis() < today)
            {
                //Make them try again
               DatePickerDialogFragment fragment = new DatePickerDialogFragment();
               fragment.setListener(dateSetListener);
               fragment.show(getSupportFragmentManager(), "Choose booking date");
               Toast.makeText(this, "Invalid date, please try again", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
            }
            else
            {
                //success
            }
}

Get System Time and subtract 1 second from It

 @Override
 public Dialog onCreateDialog(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    Calendar calendar = Calendar.getInstance();
    int year    = calendar.get(Calendar.YEAR);
    int month   = calendar.get(Calendar.MONTH);
    int day     = calendar.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH);

     dialog = new DatePickerDialog(act, listener, year, month, day);
     dialog.getDatePicker().setMinDate(System.currentTimeMillis() -1000);
     return dialog;
 }

Above API 11 For min date you can use

android:minDate="mm/dd/yyyy" or setMinDate(long time) For Max date

android:maxDate="mm/dd/yyyy" // In XML

setMaxDate(new Date().getTime());// Current time
