How to make a variable to this day in Android development?

Question

I'm doing a Android App and I want to do a variable that will see what day of the month it's (like, if the user is seeing the app in April 18, I'll have a variable that will see that it's day 18), and then I could do somenthing like this: if (today == 12){ ... } else if (today == 13) (...)

SimpleDateFormat format = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss");
Date date = format.parse(dtStart);
String today = (String) android.text.format.DateFormat.format("dd", date);
