Answer 1

My utils method for get current date time using Calendar when our minSdkVersion < 26.

fun Date.toString(format: String, locale: Locale = Locale.getDefault()): String {
    val formatter = SimpleDateFormat(format, locale)
    return formatter.format(this)
}

fun getCurrentDateTime(): Date {
    return Calendar.getInstance().time
}

Using

import ...getCurrentDateTime
import ...toString
...
...
val date = getCurrentDateTime()
val dateInString = date.toString("yyyy/MM/dd HH:mm:ss")
