Maybe you need `.val()` or `.html()` depending on the `#finishDate` element. — Tushar, Dec 13 '19 at 05:39

try using this

$(document).on('change', "#myText", function () {
     var startDate = $('#startDate').val();                
     var inputDay = $('#myText').val();
     $('#finishDate').val(startDate + inputDay).datepicker('setDate', new Date(startDate));
     //$('#finishDate').val(startDate + inputDay).datepicker('setDate', startDate); //based on your date format
 });
