# INDateComponentsRange

A span of time.

## Declaration

```swift
class INDateComponentsRange
```

## Overview

Overview Use an INDateComponentsRange object to specify date- or time-related information when responding to an intent. For example, a ride service might use this object to specify possible pickup times for the user. You create date components range objects when providing a response that includes a time span. Use this object to specify a range of times to include in the corresponding response. When displaying the date range information to the user, Siri or Maps formats the information appropriately.
