Today extension doesn't show up in a Swift app, but it does in a Objective C app. What I did was to add a UILabel with some content on the storyboard for the swift and objective c apps. It showed up when I ran the Objective C app, but not when I executed the Swift app. Am I missing something here? You can comment out the supplied init method. // init(nibName nibNameOrNil: String?, bundle nibBundleOrNil: NSBundle?) { // super.init(nibName: nibNameOrNil, bundle: nibBundleOrNil) // // Custom initialization // } This will allow your extension to run properly. The issue seems to be caused by

I've seen all the other posts of SO about sharing NSUserDefaults data between host apps and app extensions, but mine still doesn't work. Here's everything I've done: Enable App Groups on Xcode's "Capabilities" tab for the extension and host app. Set the group name to "group.com.mycompany.foo" and confirmed the extension and host app are added to the group. Confirmed an entitlements file exists for both with the "com.apple.security.application-groups" key set to my app group name. (For what it's worth, I'm also using the shared keychain capabilities between extension and host app and that is

I'm building a share extension for my iOS app and I can't use the default SLComposeServiceViewController , so I created (in the storyboard) a basic UIViewController and embedded in a navigation controller. I get to present it, dismiss it etc but it's always full screen. I would like to make it look more like a dialog. I have tried using self.preferredContentSize on my view controller, tried Use Preferred Explicit Size on the navigation controller in Interface Builder, but it doesn't work. This can be done easily and directly using the storyboard but is not immediately obvious. There is no need

I downloaded the Xcode 8 beta and was trying to play around with the iMessages app extension sdk but ran into an issue with their seemingly nonstandard nav bar height when i transition into the app's expanded view, my image with the following frame CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: 100, height: 100) ends up partially hidden behind the nav bar. i would like it to appear below the nav bar. i tried self.navigationController?.navigationBar.isTranslucent = false but it didn't work, which i guess makes sense since it's out of my app's scope to control. has anyone played around with this yet? i want to avoid

When I make any iOS 8 Today Extension, there is an empty space on the left of approximately 48px, even if in Interface Builder I place a label on the left side at x=0. I have seen that some apps, however, use a full-width widget. How can I achieve something similar? Thanks! UPDATE: SOLVED I put here the sample code because I guess it will be useful to someone. As suggested by @matteo-lallone, the correct way to do this is: -(UIEdgeInsets)widgetMarginInsetsForProposedMarginInsets:(UIEdgeInsets)defaultMa‌​rginInsets{ return UIEdgeInsetsZero; } Matteo Lallone Straight from the docs: A Today

How can i change the height of my App's Today Extension in the Notification Center? I tried it with the Interface Builder and with Code, the Interface Builder Displays the View with height 600, but it's not applying this height on the device. It seems I can't get it bigger than some 80 pixels... Santa Claus In your widget UIViewController.m (Objective-C): self.preferredContentSize = CGSizeMake(0, 200); Will make your widget have a height of 200. Note that the width will have no affect on the view, as widgets must fit in the exact width of notification center, which is handled automagically.
