Answer 1

I found a way that wasnt listed here or in the other thread. https://stackoverflow.com/a/59838215/4266735

I ran into a similar issue with the latest SwiftUI / Swift 5 on XCode 11. All of the options above did not work and the DatePicker either stayed black text or crashed.

In your SwiftUI file set init() before var body

init() {
    UIDatePicker.appearance().backgroundColor = .clear
}

Then in your var body view do this

DatePicker(selection: $dob, in: ...Date(), displayedComponents: .date) {
   Text("Select Date")
}.colorInvert()

That inverted the black text to be white using the iOS Dark Theme. Looks/works great. Hope this helps.

I've changed text color through inspector (see below)
