How to check if Haptic Engine (UIFeedbackGenerator) is supported

Question

I am wondering how we could check if the new iOS 10 API UIFeebackGenerator is available on the current device. There are some more things we would need to check

Answer 1

on iOS 13 you can check it in a very straightforward fashion. Following this documentation page, all you have to do is:

iOS 13, Swift 5

var supportsHaptics: Bool = false
...
// Check if the device supports haptics.
let hapticCapability = CHHapticEngine.capabilitiesForHardware()
supportsHaptics = hapticCapability.supportsHaptics
