I developed an app with firebase. The application checks to see if any users are logged in every boot in sceneDelegate.swift file. But its works only iOS 13 devices. iOS 12 devices users has to log in every time. How can I fix this problem? Thanks.
class SceneDelegate: UIResponder, UIWindowSceneDelegate {
var window: UIWindow?
#available(iOS 13.0, *)
func scene(_ scene: UIScene, willConnectTo session: UISceneSession, options connectionOptions: UIScene.ConnectionOptions) {
// Use this method to optionally configure and attach the UIWindow `window` to the provided UIWindowScene `scene`.
// If using a storyboard, the `window` property will automatically be initialized and attached to the scene.
// This delegate does not imply the connecting scene or session are new (see `application:configurationForConnectingSceneSession` instead).
let currentUser = Auth.auth().currentUser
if currentUser != nil {
let board = UIStoryboard(name: "Main", bundle: nil)
let navigationController = board.instantiateViewController(identifier: "navigationController") as! UINavigationController
window?.rootViewController = navigationController
}
guard let _ = (scene as? UIWindowScene) else { return }
}
SceneDelegate was introduced in iOS 13. For iOS 12 and below you should implement this same logic in the AppDelegate's didFinishLaunchingWithOptions method like this:
#UIApplicationMain
class AppDelegate: UIResponder, UIApplicationDelegate {
var window: UIWindow?
func application(_ application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplication.LaunchOptionsKey: Any]?) -> Bool {
window = UIWindow()
window?.makeKeyAndVisible()
let currentUser = Auth.auth().currentUser
if currentUser != nil {
let board = UIStoryboard(name: "Main", bundle: nil)
let navigationController = board.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "navigationController") as! UINavigationController
window?.rootViewController = navigationController
}
return true
}
}

My target for app is iOS 10.0As soon as I change my Target, I get a bunch of errors in SceneDelegate file. For backward compatibility, I added “#available(iOS 13.0, *)” for Scene Delegate class.
I Started with an OnboardingController. Which is totally programatic. So I deleted MainStoryboard and removed it from ”Main Interface” and ”Application Scene Manifest” in info.
Now, I have to set the rootView in both AppDelegate and SceneDelegate. If I don’t set window in SceneDelegate I am getting only Black screen in iOS 13.0+ Devices and if I don’t set in AppDelegate I get just Black screen in <13.0 Devices
Since I am calling both files my viewdidload() in Viewcontroller is called twice.
Following is what my AppDelegate
class AppDelegate: UIResponder, UIApplicationDelegate {
var window: UIWindow?
func application(_ application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplication.LaunchOptionsKey: Any]?) -> Bool {
window = UIWindow(frame: UIScreen.main.bounds)
let viewController = UIStoryboard(name: "Main", bundle: nil).instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "navC") as! UINavigationController
window?.rootViewController = viewController
window?.makeKeyAndVisible()
return true
}
}
Following is my SceneDelegate
#available(iOS 13.0, *)
class SceneDelegate: UIResponder, UIWindowSceneDelegate {
var window: UIWindow?
func scene(_ scene: UIScene, willConnectTo session: UISceneSession, options connectionOptions: UIScene.ConnectionOptions) {
guard let windowScene = (scene as? UIWindowScene) else { return }
window = UIWindow(frame: windowScene.coordinateSpace.bounds)
window?.windowScene = windowScene
let viewController = UIStoryboard(name: "Main", bundle: nil).instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "HomeCollectionVC") as! HomeCollectionVC
window?.rootViewController = viewController
window?.makeKeyAndVisible()
}
...
}
am I missing something?
This can be found easily by searching, but here is an example...

Opt out of UISceneDelegate/SwiftUI on iOS
(6 answers)
Closed 3 years ago.
I just started a new project of iOS. I created the project using xcode 11 and iOS 13. When I created project i found out that in order to set our own rootController we have to use sceneDelegate instead of AppDelegate. I want to ask if there is any possibility to use old method of setting rootControllers in AppDelegate instead of using sceneDelegate.
import UIKit
#UIApplicationMain
class AppDelegate: UIResponder, UIApplicationDelegate {
var window : UIWindow?
func application(_ application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplication.LaunchOptionsKey: Any]?) -> Bool {
let loginController: HomeViewController = HomeViewController(nibName: "HomeViewController", bundle: nil)
// let navController: UINavigationController = UINavigationController(rootViewController: loginController)
self.window?.rootViewController = loginController
self.window?.makeKeyAndVisible()
// Override point for customization after application launch.
return true
}
}
Follow these steps to use AppDelegate and opt-out for SceneDelegate
Go to Info.plist and remove Application Scene Manifest entry from Info.plist.
Remove SceneDelegate.swift
Add var window: UIWindow? in your AppDelegate.swift file
Delete the UISceneSession Lifecycle code from AppDelegate.swift
import UIKit
#UIApplicationMain
class AppDelegate: UIResponder, UIApplicationDelegate {
var window : UIWindow?
func application(_ application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplication.LaunchOptionsKey: Any]?) -> Bool {
// Override point for customization after application launch.
let mainStoryBoard = UIStoryboard(name: "Main", bundle: Bundle.main)
let loginController = mainStoryBoard.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "HomeViewController")
self.window?.rootViewController = loginController
self.window?.makeKeyAndVisible()
return true
}
}
Make sure to give "HomeViewController" storyboardID to your view controller.
This is how your AppDelegate.swift file should look now. You are good to go!
Why don't you use the SceneDelegate
func scene(_ scene: UIScene, willConnectTo session: UISceneSession, options connectionOptions: UIScene.ConnectionOptions) {
guard let windowScene = (scene as? UIWindowScene) else { return }
self.window = UIWindow(frame: windowScene.coordinateSpace.bounds)
//Make sure to do this else you won't get
//the windowScene object using UIApplication.shared.connectedScenes
self.window?.windowScene = windowScene
let storyBoard: UIStoryboard = UIStoryboard(name: storyBoardName, bundle: nil)
window?.rootViewController = storyBoard.instantiateInitialViewController()
window?.makeKeyAndVisible()
}
If you don't want to use sceneDelegate then you can remove all sceneDelegate and also remove 'Application Scene Manifest' from info.plist
set UIWindow variable
var window: UIWindow?
Make sure you have removed Application Scene Manifest this from info.plist and change the background colour of your view controller.
Your device's Dark Mode is enable if you want to remove dark mode from app add this key into your info.plist
User Interface Style = Light
Using scene delegate I'm able to set the root view controller.(I'm using Xcode 11.3 and iOS version 13.3 and running my app on iPhone 6+ with iOS 12.4)
What I want is when user login, I need to update the root view controller. For that I did the following
class SceneDelegate: UIResponder, UIWindowSceneDelegate {
var window: UIWindow?
static let shared = SceneDelegate()
func scene(_ scene: UIScene, willConnectTo session: UISceneSession, options connectionOptions: UIScene.ConnectionOptions) {
//some code is here
}
}
#available(iOS 13.0, *)
extension SceneDelegate {
func setRootViewControllerBasedOnLogin() {
if let isLoggedIn = UserDefaults.standard.bool(forKey: "isLogin"), isLoggedIn {
let tabbar = UIStoryboard(name: "Other", bundle: nil).instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "Tabbar") as! UITabBarController
if var vcs = tabbar.viewControllers {
vcs.remove(at: 2)
tabbar.viewControllers = vcs
}
self.window?.rootViewController = tabbar
} else {
//other stuff
}
}
}
So when user login in to the app I need to remove a tab item from tab bar and update the root view controller.
So I'm doing as follows.
func processLogin() {
//performing login in this method so when login successful we setting root view controller
callLoginAPI { response in
if response.isSuccess {
UserDefaults.standard.set(true, forKey: "isLogin")
if #available(iOS 13.0, *) {
SceneDelegate.shared.setRootViewControllerBasedOnLogin()
} else {
// Fallback on earlier versions
}
}
}
}
When I'm doing this nothing happened. I'm not able to change the root view controller of the app after user successfully login into the app?
Any suggestions? what am I doing wrong?
This is how I managed navigation for both the older version and the new version. So when the user has the latest iOS we need to setup root from sceneDelegate and for older version we need to setup root from appDelegate
AppDelegate.swift
class AppDelegate: UIResponder, UIApplicationDelegate {
var window: UIWindow?
func application(_ application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplication.LaunchOptionsKey: Any]?) -> Bool {
if #available(iOS 13, *) {
} else {
setupRoot()
}
return true
}
// MARK: UISceneSession Lifecycle
#available(iOS 13.0, *)
func application(_ application: UIApplication, configurationForConnecting connectingSceneSession: UISceneSession, options: UIScene.ConnectionOptions) -> UISceneConfiguration {
return UISceneConfiguration(name: "Default Configuration", sessionRole: connectingSceneSession.role)
}
#available(iOS 13.0, *)
func application(_ application: UIApplication, didDiscardSceneSessions sceneSessions: Set<UISceneSession>) {
}
func setupRoot() {
//Setup Your Root Here
//window?.rootViewController = objNavigationVC
//window?.makeKeyAndVisible()
}
}
SceneDelegate.swift
#available(iOS 13.0, *)
class SceneDelegate: UIResponder, UIWindowSceneDelegate {
var window: UIWindow?
func scene(_ scene: UIScene, willConnectTo session: UISceneSession, options connectionOptions: UIScene.ConnectionOptions) {
guard let _ = (scene as? UIWindowScene) else { return }
let appDelegate = UIApplication.shared.delegate as! AppDelegate
appDelegate.window = window
appDelegate.setupRoot()
}
}
func presentYourView(from view: YourViwe) {
if #available(iOS 13, *) {
let mySceneDelegate = view.view.window?.windowScene?.delegate
if let sceneDelegate = mySceneDelegate as? SceneDelegate {
sceneDelegate.changeRootViewController(newViewController())
}
} else {
(UIApplication.shared.delegate as? AppDelegate)?.changeRootViewController(newViewController())
}
}
Update Swift 5+ , Xcode 13+
To change rootViewController depending upon user has logged in or not, here is the full code for SceneDelegate
class SceneDelegate: UIResponder, UIWindowSceneDelegate {
var window: UIWindow?
func scene(_ scene: UIScene, willConnectTo session: UISceneSession, options connectionOptions: UIScene.ConnectionOptions) {
// Use this method to optionally configure and attach the UIWindow `window` to the provided UIWindowScene `scene`.
// If using a storyboard, the `window` property will automatically be initialized and attached to the scene.
// This delegate does not imply the connecting scene or session are new (see `application:configurationForConnectingSceneSession` instead).
guard let _ = (scene as? UIWindowScene) else { return }
if UserDefaultHelper.isLoggedIn! {
print("User logged in")
let mainStoryboard: UIStoryboard = UIStoryboard(name: "Main", bundle: nil) // this assumes your storyboard is titled "Main.storyboard"
let yourVC = mainStoryboard.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "CustomerMainViewController") as! CustomerMainViewController // inside "YOUR_VC_IDENTIFIER" substitute the Storyboard ID you created in step 2 for the view controller you want to open here. And substitute YourViewController with the name of your view controller, like, for example, ViewController2.
self.window?.rootViewController = yourVC
self.window?.makeKeyAndVisible()
}
else {
print("User Not logged in")
}
}
func sceneDidDisconnect(_ scene: UIScene) {
// Called as the scene is being released by the system.
// This occurs shortly after the scene enters the background, or when its session is discarded.
// Release any resources associated with this scene that can be re-created the next time the scene connects.
// The scene may re-connect later, as its session was not necessarily discarded (see `application:didDiscardSceneSessions` instead).
}
func sceneDidBecomeActive(_ scene: UIScene) {
// Called when the scene has moved from an inactive state to an active state.
// Use this method to restart any tasks that were paused (or not yet started) when the scene was inactive.
}
func sceneWillResignActive(_ scene: UIScene) {
// Called when the scene will move from an active state to an inactive state.
// This may occur due to temporary interruptions (ex. an incoming phone call).
}
func sceneWillEnterForeground(_ scene: UIScene) {
// Called as the scene transitions from the background to the foreground.
// Use this method to undo the changes made on entering the background.
}
func sceneDidEnterBackground(_ scene: UIScene) {
// Called as the scene transitions from the foreground to the background.
// Use this method to save data, release shared resources, and store enough scene-specific state information
// to restore the scene back to its current state.
}
}
The problem with PinkeshGjr's answer is that it discardings the window object provided by the scene. Here's what I feel is a better/simpler approach:
#UIApplicationMain
class AppDelegate: UIResponder, UIApplicationDelegate {
static var current: AppDelegate {
return UIApplication.shared.delegate as! AppDelegate
}
var window: UIWindow?
func application(_ application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplication.LaunchOptionsKey: Any]?) -> Bool {
if #available(iOS 13, *) {
} else {
window = UIWindow();
setUpRoot()
}
return true
}
func setUpRoot() {
window?.rootViewController = ViewController(nibName: nil, bundle: nil)
window?.makeKeyAndVisible()
}
}
#available(iOS 13.0, *)
class SceneDelegate: UIResponder, UIWindowSceneDelegate {
func scene(_ scene: UIScene, willConnectTo session: UISceneSession, options connectionOptions: UIScene.ConnectionOptions) {
guard let windowScene = scene as? UIWindowScene else { fatalError() }
let firstWindow = windowScene.windows.first ?? UIWindow(windowScene: windowScene)
AppDelegate.current.window = firstWindow
AppDelegate.current.setUpRoot()
}
}
I am currently getting a blank screen with Xcode 11, Target iOS 13.0 (the app works fine with all below versions iOS 12.1 till 12.4), I want to make my App work for both iOS users above 12.1 and also 13.0 currently getting blank screen despite adding the below UIWindowSceneDelegate to my existing project and App Manifest:
adding App Manifest file
import UIKit
import SwiftUI
#available(iOS 13.0, *)
class SceneDelegate: UIResponder, UIWindowSceneDelegate {
var window: UIWindow?
func scene(_ scene: UIScene, willConnectTo session: UISceneSession, options connectionOptions: UIScene.ConnectionOptions) {
//guard let _ = (scene as? UIWindowScene) else { return }
let user = UserDefaults.standard.object(forKey: "defaultsuserid")
let userSelfIdent = UserDefaults.standard.object(forKey: "userinitialident")
if let windowScene = scene as? UIWindowScene {
let internalWindow = UIWindow(windowScene: windowScene)
if (user != nil && userSelfIdent != nil){
let mainstoryboard:UIStoryboard = UIStoryboard(name: "Main", bundle: nil)
let newViewcontroller:UIViewController = mainstoryboard.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "swrevealviewcontroller") as! SWRevealViewController
internalWindow.rootViewController = newViewcontroller
self.window = internalWindow
internalWindow.makeKeyAndVisible()
}else {
guard let _ = (scene as? UIWindowScene) else { return }
}
}
}
The following is my AppDelegate which is getting called first and executing the didFinishLaunchWithOptions method. I want to know how can i make this method call only if my Target ios is less than 13.0 and call SceneDelegate method to initialize my rootViewController after 13.0?
#UIApplicationMain
class AppDelegate: UIResponder, UIApplicationDelegate {
var window: UIWindow?
#available(iOS 13.0, *)
func application(_ application: UIApplication,
configurationForConnecting connectingSceneSession: UISceneSession,
options: UIScene.ConnectionOptions) -> UISceneConfiguration {
return UISceneConfiguration(name: "Default Configuration", sessionRole: connectingSceneSession.role)
}
#available(iOS 13.0, *)
func application(_ application: UIApplication, didDiscardSceneSessions sceneSessions: Set<UISceneSession>) {
}
#available(iOS 13.0, *)
func scene(_ scene: UIScene, willConnectTo session: UISceneSession, options connectionOptions: UIScene.ConnectionOptions) {
guard let _ = (scene as? UIWindowScene) else { return }
if (user != nil && userSelfIdent != nil){
let mainstoryboard:UIStoryboard = UIStoryboard(name: "Main", bundle: nil)
let newViewcontroller:UIViewController = mainstoryboard.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "swrevealviewcontroller") as! SWRevealViewController
self.window?.rootViewController = newViewcontroller
}
}
func application(_ application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplicationLaunchOptionsKey: Any]?) -> Bool {
// Override point for customization after application launch.
Thread.sleep(forTimeInterval: 3.0)
UINavigationBar.appearance().barTintColor = UIColor(red:0.08, green:0.23, blue:0.62, alpha:1.0)
if (user != nil && userSelfIdent != nil){
let mainstoryboard:UIStoryboard = UIStoryboard(name: "Main", bundle: nil)
let newViewcontroller:UIViewController = mainstoryboard.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "swrevealviewcontroller") as! SWRevealViewController
self.window?.rootViewController = newViewcontroller
}
return true
}
func application(_ application: UIApplication, didRegisterForRemoteNotificationsWithDeviceToken deviceToken: Data) {
let defaultUserID = UserDefaults.standard.string(forKey: "defaultUserID")
}
func application(_ application: UIApplication, didReceiveRemoteNotification userInfo: [AnyHashable : Any], fetchCompletionHandler completionHandler: #escaping (UIBackgroundFetchResult) -> Void) {
switch (application.applicationState) {
case UIApplicationState.active:
do something
case UIApplicationState.background, UIApplicationState.inactive:
let mainstoryboard:UIStoryboard = UIStoryboard(name: "Main", bundle: nil)
let newViewcontroller = mainstoryboard.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "swrevealviewcontroller") as! SWRevealViewController
self.window?.rootViewController = newViewcontroller
}
}
You have several issues here. It's important to read the documentation related to the app lifecycle which states what is called under iOS 13 and what is called under iOS 12.
You may also want to see my Single View App template that supports iOS 12 and 13.
Looking at your code, here is a summary of the problems:
AppDelegate:
You should only setup the main window and the root view controller if the app is being run under iOS 12 or earlier. You need to check this at runtime.
The func scene(_ scene: UIScene, willConnectTo session: UISceneSession, options connectionOptions: UIScene.ConnectionOptions) method should not be in the app delegate.
Not directly related but never sleep on app startup. Remove the Thread.sleep(forTimeInterval: 3.0) line. Users want to use your app, not stare at the launch screen longer than necessary. And blocking the main thread on app launch can cause your app to be killed.
SceneDelegate:
This is mostly fine but there is no reason for the guard let _ = (scene as? UIWindowScene) else { return } line, especially since it is inside an if let that already does that check.
You don't appear to be using SwiftUI so remove that import.
I would update your app delegate to be more like this:
#UIApplicationMain
class AppDelegate: UIResponder, UIApplicationDelegate {
var window: UIWindow?
func application(_ application: UIApplication, willFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplication.LaunchOptionsKey: Any]? = nil) -> Bool {
UINavigationBar.appearance().barTintColor = UIColor(red:0.08, green:0.23, blue:0.62, alpha:1.0)
if #available(iOS 13.0, *) {
// In iOS 13 setup is done in SceneDelegate
} else {
let window = UIWindow(frame: UIScreen.main.bounds)
self.window = window
if (user != nil && userSelfIdent != nil){
let mainstoryboard:UIStoryboard = UIStoryboard(name: "Main", bundle: nil)
let newViewcontroller:UIViewController = mainstoryboard.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "swrevealviewcontroller") as! SWRevealViewController
window.rootViewController = newViewcontroller
}
}
return true
}
func application(_ application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplication.LaunchOptionsKey: Any]?) -> Bool {
if #available(iOS 13.0, *) {
// In iOS 13 setup is done in SceneDelegate
} else {
self.window?.makeKeyAndVisible()
}
return true
}
func applicationWillResignActive(_ application: UIApplication) {
// Not called under iOS 13 - See SceneDelegate sceneWillResignActive
}
func applicationDidEnterBackground(_ application: UIApplication) {
// Not called under iOS 13 - See SceneDelegate sceneDidEnterBackground
}
func applicationWillEnterForeground(_ application: UIApplication) {
// Not called under iOS 13 - See SceneDelegate sceneWillEnterForeground
}
func applicationDidBecomeActive(_ application: UIApplication) {
// Not called under iOS 13 - See SceneDelegate sceneDidBecomeActive
}
// MARK: UISceneSession Lifecycle
#available(iOS 13.0, *)
func application(_ application: UIApplication, configurationForConnecting connectingSceneSession: UISceneSession, options: UIScene.ConnectionOptions) -> UISceneConfiguration {
// Called when a new scene session is being created.
// Use this method to select a configuration to create the new scene with.
return UISceneConfiguration(name: "Default Configuration", sessionRole: connectingSceneSession.role)
}
#available(iOS 13.0, *)
func application(_ application: UIApplication, didDiscardSceneSessions sceneSessions: Set<UISceneSession>) {
// Called when the user discards a scene session.
// If any sessions were discarded while the application was not running, this will be called shortly after application:didFinishLaunchingWithOptions.
// Use this method to release any resources that were specific to the discarded scenes, as they will not return.
}
}
Your scene delegate could be like:
#available(iOS 13.0, *)
class SceneDelegate: UIResponder, UIWindowSceneDelegate {
var window: UIWindow?
func scene(_ scene: UIScene, willConnectTo session: UISceneSession, options connectionOptions: UIScene.ConnectionOptions) {
guard let windowScene = (scene as? UIWindowScene) else { return }
let window = UIWindow(windowScene: windowScene)
self.window = window
if (user != nil && userSelfIdent != nil){
let mainstoryboard:UIStoryboard = UIStoryboard(name: "Main", bundle: nil)
let newViewcontroller:UIViewController = mainstoryboard.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "swrevealviewcontroller") as! SWRevealViewController
window.rootViewController = newViewcontroller
window.makeKeyAndVisible()
}
}
func sceneDidDisconnect(_ scene: UIScene) {
// Called as the scene is being released by the system.
}
func sceneDidBecomeActive(_ scene: UIScene) {
// Not called under iOS 12 - See AppDelegate applicationDidBecomeActive
}
func sceneWillResignActive(_ scene: UIScene) {
// Not called under iOS 12 - See AppDelegate applicationWillResignActive
}
func sceneWillEnterForeground(_ scene: UIScene) {
// Not called under iOS 12 - See AppDelegate applicationWillEnterForeground
}
func sceneDidEnterBackground(_ scene: UIScene) {
// Not called under iOS 12 - See AppDelegate applicationDidEnterBackground
}
}
Steps for running with iOS 13 and lower versions:
Change deployment target to iOS 12.
Replace the AppDelegate's methods with what they ought to have for iOS 12 development. Also add this:
var window: UIWindow?
Remove SceneDelegate.
Remove Application Scene Manifest in your info.plist.
It will work on both iOS 13 and lower iOS Version
Easily follow these steps:
Remove scene delegate file
Add below code to AppDelegate.swift
class AppDelegate: UIResponder, UIApplicationDelegate {
var window: UIWindow?
func application(_ application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplication.LaunchOptionsKey: Any]?) -> Bool {
return true
}
}
Remove the Application Scene Manifest line from your .plist file
The accepted answer is correct in a lot of ways, but I believe it's not a complete answer. I posted a comment that already helped several people to fully solve the issue, so I will post this as an answer as well:
If you messed this up once and it's already installed in the simulator, every new launch will still have this issue, even if your settings are correct...
The solution is to remove the App and reinstall it with the corrected code! It's a crazy fix, but it works!
I commented 2 scene methods in the AppDelegate, and then it works
please check my screenshot
I was stuck with this problem, and finally i solved removing the searchDisplayController references from storyboard.
<searchDisplayController id="pWz-So-g6H">
<connections>
<outlet property="delegate" destination="Yci-sd-Mof" id="fjs-ah-jLs"/>
<outlet property="searchContentsController" destination="Yci-sd-Mof" id="gQN-1r-gti"/>
<outlet property="searchResultsDataSource" destination="Yci-sd-Mof" id="2Jf-lh-Ute"/>
<outlet property="searchResultsDelegate" destination="Yci-sd-Mof" id="Hap-SA-f02"/>
</connections>
</searchDisplayController>
When I had a similar issue it was due to the Single-App template generated using Xcode 11.0 was incompatible to the one being needed for an app built with Xcode 11.2.
So I just created a new Single-Page-App with Xcode 11.2 and copied the generated SceneDelegate to my old project which was created using Xcode 11.0.
After that, the blank screen was gone an my interface visible once more.
Please refer above image and add the line in AppDelegate.
xcode 11.6
#ionic/react capacitor app
UPDATED:7/22/2020
We had black screen issue at TestFlight too.
WE finally solved.
Check config.capacitor.json and see if u have localhost there,
delete URLs under server section..
we(I) forgot our URL localhost still there when we run release, to be honest i did not know that could be problem or never think to check there,
I spent time(days) to check storyBoard suggestions.
I was porting some sample code from older App Delegate presentation to a new Xcode project with the new Scene Delegate infrastructure.
Even after moving the code the Scene Delegate, I was getting a black screen.
The issue was the way in which I was getting a reference to the window.
Use the new UIWindow(windowScene:) initializer rather than initWithFrame:.
class SceneDelegate: UIResponder, UIWindowSceneDelegate {
var window: UIWindow?
func scene(_ scene: UIScene, willConnectTo session: UISceneSession, options connectionOptions: UIScene.ConnectionOptions) {
// OLD: causes black screen
self.window = UIWindow(frame: UIScreen.main.bounds)
// NEW: works perfectly
guard let windowScene = (scene as? UIWindowScene) else { return }
self.window = UIWindow(windowScene: windowScene)
let vc = UIStoryboard(name: "Main", bundle: nil).instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "INITAL_VIEW_CONTROLLER")
self.window?.rootViewController = vc
self.window?.makeKeyAndVisible()
}
}
After upgrading Xcode a critical part of my application has stopped working.
When my app launches I run a function to check boolean flags and set the correct rootViewController.
But the code I have been using to set this has now stopped working
class func setLoginAsInitialViewContoller(window:UIWindow) {
print("SET LOGIN")
let storyboard = UIStoryboard(name: "Login", bundle: nil)
let controller = storyboard.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "LoginViewController")
controller.modalPresentationStyle = .overFullScreen
window.rootViewController = controller
window.makeKeyAndVisible()
}
Specifically when the app gets the the second last line window.rootViewController = controller it crashes with a libc++abi.dylib: terminating with uncaught exception of type NSException error.
The above function is in a class called Utilities.swift and I am calling the function from within my AppDelegate.swift as shown below:
class AppDelegate: UIResponder, UIApplicationDelegate {
var window: UIWindow?
var storyboard: UIStoryboard? = nil
func application(_ application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplication.LaunchOptionsKey: Any]?) -> Bool {
UIApplication.shared.isIdleTimerDisabled = true
Utilities.decideInitialViewController(window: self.window!)
return true
}
Any solutions or fixes on how I can set the root controller is much appreciated.
Thank!
This is because AppDelegate doesn't have window property anymore.
Now you must use SceneDelegate's scene(_:willConnectTo:options:) method to change root view controller.
Like shown in this example:
func scene(_ scene: UIScene, willConnectTo session: UISceneSession, options connectionOptions: UIScene.ConnectionOptions) {
guard let scene = (scene as? UIWindowScene) else { return }
// Instantiate UIWindow with scene
let window = UIWindow(windowScene: scene)
// Assign window to SceneDelegate window property
self.window = window
// Set initial view controller from Main storyboard as root view controller of UIWindow
self.window?.rootViewController = UIStoryboard(name: "Main", bundle: nil).instantiateInitialViewController()
// Present window to screen
self.window?.makeKeyAndVisible()
}
It is available in SceneDelegate.swift file in your project
It will have delegate method :
func scene(_ scene: UIScene, willConnectTo session: UISceneSession,
options connectionOptions: UIScene.ConnectionOptions)
Example
func scene(_ scene: UIScene, willConnectTo session: UISceneSession,
options connectionOptions: UIScene.ConnectionOptions) {
if let windowScene = scene as? UIWindowScene {
self.window = UIWindow(windowScene: windowScene)
let initialViewController =
storyboard.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "FirstViewController")
self.window!.rootViewController = initialViewController
self.window!.makeKeyAndVisible()
}
}
In viewDidAppear you can set root:-
override func viewDidAppear(_ animated: Bool) {
print(self.view.window)
let vc = self.storyboard?.instantiateViewController(identifier: "SecondViewController") as? SecondViewController
self.view.window?.rootViewController = vc
}
For anyone looking to create a couple of extensions to change the root view controller and need to support both delegate types (UISceneDelegate and AppDelegate), here's a couple:
extension UIViewController {
var appDelegate: AppDelegate {
return UIApplication.shared.delegate as! AppDelegate
}
var sceneDelegate: SceneDelegate? {
guard let windowScene = UIApplication.shared.connectedScenes.first as? UIWindowScene,
let delegate = windowScene.delegate as? SceneDelegate else { return nil }
return delegate
}
}
And if you're in need of an extension to reach the UIWindow from a ViewController with iOS12 and iOS13 Support:
extension UIViewController {
var window: UIWindow? {
if #available(iOS 13, *) {
guard let windowScene = UIApplication.shared.connectedScenes.first as? UIWindowScene,
let delegate = windowScene.delegate as? SceneDelegate, let window = delegate.window else { return nil }
return window
}
guard let delegate = UIApplication.shared.delegate as? AppDelegate, let window = delegate.window else { return nil }
return window
}
}
If you want to use ScenceDelegate. In scene(_:willConnectTo:options:, creates a new UIWindow, sets the window’s rootViewController and makes this window the key window.
If you don't want to use ScenceDelegate, you can try to remove it by following this.
