    You can get the time difference like this

    NSDate *today = [NSDate date];
NSCalendar *gregorian = [[NSCalendar alloc] initWithCalendarIdentifier:NSGregorianCalendar];
NSDateComponents *components = [gregorian components:(NSDayCalendarUnit | NSHourCalendarUnit | NSMinCalendarUnit) fromDate:today];

[components setHour:otherHour];
[components setMinute:otherMinute];

NSDate *otherDate = [gregorian dateFromComponents:components];

NSTimeInterval timeDifferenceBetweenDates = [today timeIntervalSinceDate:otherDate];

    do that for all your hours/minutes and take the minimum absolute time interval.
