Question

On iOS8 I\'m using a UIActivityViewController to share a UIImage to Facebook/Twitter etc. It seemed to be working fine, but today it suddenly started crashing when running t

Answer 1

popoverPresentationController was new to iOS 8 and will crash on iOS 7. It'll also be nil on iPhone because it's only in a UIPopover on iPad. Here's Christian's answer in Swift, with those facts taken into account:

Swift 2.0 (Xcode 7)

let controller = UIActivityViewController(activityItems: [text, url, myImage], applicationActivities: nil)

presentViewController(controller, animated: true, completion: nil)

if #available(iOS 8.0, *) {
    let presentationController = controller.popoverPresentationController
    presentationController?.sourceView = view
}

Swift 1.2 (Xcode 6)

let controller = UIActivityViewController(activityItems: [text, url, myImage], applicationActivities: nil)

presentViewController(controller, animated: true, completion: nil)

if controller.respondsToSelector("popoverPresentationController") {
    // iOS 8+
    let presentationController = controller.popoverPresentationController
    presentationController?.sourceView = view
}
