Demo with no hovered increment/decrement icons

Application Code : https://stackblitz.com/edit/angular-incons-hide-input-type-date?file=src/app/app.component.css

Approach :

I looked for the things that are applied on :hover of matinput but no luck,
So i tricked by making a mask of white color which will cover that icons using :before.

This will hide those icons and their actions will not be available like opening of calendar dialog on clicking from icon, as icon is hidden.

Code :

Give class to input tag
<input class="myInput" matInput type="date" placeholder="no icons on hover" value="">,
then add following css

.myInput::before {

    content: 'we';

    position: absolute;

    right: 0;

    width: 40px;

    height: 40px;

    background-color: white;

    color: white;

}

@chaucer yes, its for those where you will give this particular class myInput, and according to material there is different date picker for this, they don't use type='date' with matInput. See Datepicker docs : material.angular.io/components/datepicker/overview
