Ok, Now I have stored date in miliseconds format. from this I can get year, month and date(I can also get time from this). But how to store time? Because there are 2 buttons for user to select using first button user select the date on which he wants to on particular switch and second button for the time to on the switch. Should I store this time in normal int format?
