How to convert firebase timestamp into date in iOS objective-c?

Question

I've kept my data in firebase with TIMESTAMP generated by firebase. I need to convert them in my iOS app. I tried to do it in following manner but returns complicated result.

NSDate *date = [NSDate dateWithTimeIntervalSince1970:1493292606524];
NSLog(@"Date: %@", date);

It returns Date: 49290-07-23 05:48:44 +0000

What is the issue of above? Result should be today date. (2017-04-27)

But 49290-07-23 05:48:44 +0000 is correct :) You can check it here for example http://www.unixtimestamp.com — Retterdesdialogs, Apr 27 '17 at 12:06
