Is there anyway to hide the 24hrs format in UIDatePicker

Question

I am doing the application with UIDatePicker for time format. It is working in 12hrs format, If i change the iPhone date/time to 24hrs format, I need to display only 12hrs format, not the 24hrs format.

Is there anyway to disable the 24hrs format?

Use this code for 12 hour format

NSLocale *locale = [[NSLocale alloc] initWithLocaleIdentifier:@"US"];
[self.datePicker setLocale:locale];

Use this code for 24 hour format

NSLocale *locale = [[NSLocale alloc] initWithLocaleIdentifier:@"NL"];
[self.datePicker setLocale:locale];
