how can you get the current local time on my device with the 12 hour format in React native?-CodePudding

I am have an idea on how I could get the time but its always in 24 hour format, how can I get it into being in a 12 hour format??

any suggestions??

You can use any js date-time library you prefer. For example https://date-fns.org/v2.29.3/docs/format Regarding getting the proper timezone, first, you need to get your device's timezone with

import DeviceInfo from 'react-native-device-info';

DeviceInfo.getTimezone();

and then use this timezone with date-time library https://date-fns.org/v2.29.3/docs/Time-Zones

use Moment format to do that

moment().format("hh:mm a")
