How do I format the current date for the user's locale?

Question

I have this code where I\'m trying to get the current date and format it in the current locale.

NSDate *now = [NSDate date];  //  gets current date
NSString *sNo

Here's a Swift 5 version of @JiaYou's answer:

func format(date: Date) -> String {
    let formatter = DateFormatter()
    formatter.dateStyle = .medium
    formatter.timeStyle = .none
    return formatter.string(from: date)
}

Here I need date only, so I indicate the timeStyle as none.
