Getting started with .NET MAUI Time Picker
This section explains how to add the .NET MAUI Time Picker control. It covers only the basic features needed to get started with the Syncfusion Time Picker. Follow the steps below to add a .NET MAUI Time picker to your project.
To get start quickly with our .NET MAUI Time Picker, you can check the below video.
Prerequisites
Before proceeding, ensure the following are set up:
- Install .NET 7 SDK or later is installed.
- Set up a .NET MAUI environment with Visual Studio 2022 (v17.3 or later).
Step 1: Create a New .NET MAUI Project
- Go to File > New > Project and choose the .NET MAUI App template.
- Name the project and choose a location. Then click Next.
- Select the .NET framework version and click Create.
Step 2: Install the Syncfusion® .NET MAUI Picker NuGet Package
- In Solution Explorer, right-click the project and choose Manage NuGet Packages.
- Search for Syncfusion.Maui.Picker and install the latest version.
- Ensure the necessary dependencies are installed correctly, and the project is restored.
Step 3: Register the handler
The Syncfusion.Maui.Core NuGet is a dependent package for all Syncfusion® controls of .NET MAUI. In the MauiProgram.cs file, register the handler for Syncfusion® core.
using Syncfusion.Maui.Core.Hosting;
namespace GettingStarted
{
public static class MauiProgram
{
public static MauiApp CreateMauiApp()
{
var builder = MauiApp.CreateBuilder();
builder.ConfigureSyncfusionCore();
builder
.UseMauiApp<App>()
.ConfigureFonts(fonts =>
{
fonts.AddFont("OpenSans-Regular.ttf", "OpenSansRegular");
});
return builder.Build();
}
}
}
Step 4: Add .NET MAUI Time picker control
- To initialize the control, import the
Syncfusion.Maui.Picker
namespace into your code. - Initialize SfTimePicker.
<ContentPage
. . .
xmlns:picker="clr-namespace:Syncfusion.Maui.Picker;assembly=Syncfusion.Maui.Picker">
<picker:SfTimePicker />
</ContentPage>
using Syncfusion.Maui.Picker;
. . .
public partial class MainPage : ContentPage
{
public MainPage()
{
InitializeComponent();
SfTimePicker picker = new SfTimePicker();
this.Content = picker;
}
}
Prerequisites

Ctrl+Shift+P
and type .NET:New Project and enter. - Choose the .NET MAUI App template.
- Select the project location, type the project name and press Enter.
- Then choose Create project.
Step 2: Install the Syncfusion® .NET MAUI Picker NuGet Package
- Press Ctrl + ` (backtick) to open the integrated terminal in Visual Studio Code.
- Ensure you’re in the project root directory where your .csproj file is located.
- Run the command
dotnet add package Syncfusion.Maui.Picker
to install the Syncfusion® .NET MAUI Picker NuGet package. - To ensure all dependencies are installed, run
dotnet restore
.
Step 3: Register the handler
The Syncfusion.Maui.Core NuGet is a dependent package for all Syncfusion® controls of .NET MAUI. In the MauiProgram.cs file, register the handler for Syncfusion® core.
using Syncfusion.Maui.Core.Hosting;
namespace GettingStarted
{
public static class MauiProgram
{
public static MauiApp CreateMauiApp()
{
var builder = MauiApp.CreateBuilder();
builder.ConfigureSyncfusionCore();
builder
.UseMauiApp<App>()
.ConfigureFonts(fonts =>
{
fonts.AddFont("OpenSans-Regular.ttf", "OpenSansRegular");
});
return builder.Build();
}
}
}
Step 4: Add .NET MAUI Time picker control
- To initialize the control, import the
Syncfusion.Maui.Picker
namespace into your code. - Initialize SfTimePicker.
<ContentPage
. . .
xmlns:picker="clr-namespace:Syncfusion.Maui.Picker;assembly=Syncfusion.Maui.Picker">
<picker:SfTimePicker />
</ContentPage>
using Syncfusion.Maui.Picker;
. . .
public partial class MainPage : ContentPage
{
public MainPage()
{
InitializeComponent();
SfTimePicker picker = new SfTimePicker();
this.Content = picker;
}
}
Prerequisites
Before proceeding, ensure the following are set up:
- Ensure you have the latest version of JetBrains Rider.
- Install .NET 8 SDK or later is installed.
- Make sure the MAUI workloads are installed and configured as described here.
Step 1: Create a new .NET MAUI Project
- Go to File > New Solution, Select .NET (C#) and choose the .NET MAUI App template.
- Enter the Project Name, Solution Name, and Location.
- Select the .NET framework version and click Create.
Step 2: Install the Syncfusion® MAUI Picker NuGet Package
- In Solution Explorer, right-click the project and choose Manage NuGet Packages.
- Search for Syncfusion.Maui.Picker and install the latest version.
- Ensure the necessary dependencies are installed correctly, and the project is restored. If not, Open the Terminal in Rider and manually run:
dotnet restore
Step 3: Register the handler
The Syncfusion.Maui.Core NuGet is a dependent package for all Syncfusion® controls of .NET MAUI. In the MauiProgram.cs file, register the handler for Syncfusion® core.
using Syncfusion.Maui.Core.Hosting;
namespace GettingStarted
{
public static class MauiProgram
{
public static MauiApp CreateMauiApp()
{
var builder = MauiApp.CreateBuilder();
builder.ConfigureSyncfusionCore();
builder
.UseMauiApp<App>()
.ConfigureFonts(fonts =>
{
fonts.AddFont("OpenSans-Regular.ttf", "OpenSansRegular");
});
return builder.Build();
}
}
}
Step 4: Add .NET MAUI Time picker control
- To initialize the control, import the
Syncfusion.Maui.Picker
namespace into your code. - Initialize SfTimePicker.
<ContentPage
. . .
xmlns:picker="clr-namespace:Syncfusion.Maui.Picker;assembly=Syncfusion.Maui.Picker">
<picker:SfTimePicker />
</ContentPage>
using Syncfusion.Maui.Picker;
. . .
public partial class MainPage : ContentPage
{
public MainPage()
{
InitializeComponent();
SfTimePicker picker = new SfTimePicker();
this.Content = picker;
}
}
Set header to the Time Picker
The SfTimePicker control allows you to add the header text by setting the Text property in the PickerHeaderView. Enable the header view by setting the Height property in the PickerHeaderView.
<picker:SfTimePicker x:Name="picker">
<picker:SfTimePicker.HeaderView>
<picker:PickerHeaderView Text="Time Picker" Height="40" />
</picker:SfTimePicker.HeaderView>
</picker:SfTimePicker>
SfTimePicker picker = new SfTimePicker();
picker.HeaderView = new PickerHeaderView()
{
Text = "Time Picker",
Height = 40,
};
this.Content = picker;
Set footer to the Time Picker
In the SfTimePicker control, validation buttons (OK and Cancel) can be customized by setting the OkButtonText and CancelButtonText properties in the PickerFooterView. It allows you to confirm or cancel the selected time. The OkButtonText
can be enabled using the ShowOkButton property in the PickerFooterView.
<picker:SfTimePicker x:Name="picker">
<picker:SfTimePicker.FooterView>
<picker:PickerFooterView ShowOkButton="True" Height="40" />
</picker:SfTimePicker.FooterView>
</picker:SfTimePicker>
SfTimePicker picker = new SfTimePicker();
picker.FooterView= new PickerFooterView()
{
ShowOkButton = true,
Height = 40,
};
this.Content = picker;
Set height and width to the Time Picker
The SfTimePicker control allows you to change the height and width by using the [HeightRequest] and [WidthRequest] properties in the SfTimePicker.
<picker:SfTimePicker x:Name="picker"
HeightRequest="280"
WidthRequest="300">
</picker:SfTimePicker>
SfTimePicker picker = new SfTimePicker()
{
HeightRequest = 280,
WidthRequest = 300,
};
this.Content = picker;
Set selected time to the Time Picker
The SfTimePicker control allows you to select the time using the SelectedTime property in the SfTimePicker. The default value of the SelectedTime
is the current time.
<picker:SfTimePicker x:Name="picker"
SelectedTime="07:22:01">
</picker:SfTimePicker>
SfTimePicker picker = new SfTimePicker()
{
SelectedTime = new TimeSpan(07, 22, 01),
};
this.Content = picker;
Clear selection
The .NET MAUI TimePicker provides clear selection support, allowing you to clear the selected time by setting the SelectedTime
property to null
.
<picker:SfTimePicker x:Name="picker" />
this.picker.SelectedTime = null;
