The DatePicker class has methods for getting the month  year  day of month  Or you can use an OnDateChangedListener

If you are using Kotlin  you can define an extension function for DatePicker   fun DatePicker getDate    Date       val calendar   Calendar getInstance       calendar set year  month  dayOfMonth      return calendar time     Then  it s just  datePicker getDate    As if it had always existed
