I can not change the font size of each component rows and currently selected component row's text color of UIDatePicker.

In ViewDidLoad, my code is : 

    self.dPicker.backgroundColor = [UIColor grayColor];
    [self.dPicker setValue:[UIColor whiteColor] forKey:@"textColor"];

Is is limited by Apple?

According to Apple's UIKit User Interface Catalog, we are not allowed to customize date pickers.

I suggest you look at other StackOverflow answers for similar questions that suggest making a fake UIDatePicker using UIPickerView and customizing that.

There is no any API for change apperiance of UIDatePicker

then also if you want to do like that, you can do using swift:

See this for customizable implementation of UIDatePicker

https://github.com/prolificinteractive/PIDatePicker

If you want to change the color of selected row, then u need to change the font color or selection indicator of the row color

UIView *abc = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(20, 130, 280, 44)];
abc.backgroundColor = [UIColor redColor];

abc.alpha = 0.5f;
[yourDatePicker addSubview: abc];

Try this for color:

yourDatePicker.backgroundColor = UIColor.redColor()
yourDatePicker.setValue(UIColor.blueColor(), forKeyPath: "textColor")
yourDatePicker.setValue(0.8, forKeyPath: "alpha")

@jamshed You don't need create a subview and add it to UIDatePicker. If you want to change highlight text color of UIDatePicker, you can use this code:

[self.datePicker setValue:@(false) forKey:@"highlightsToday"];
