How can I change image tintColor

Question

I\'m receiving image from a server, then based on a color chosen by the user, the image color will be changed.

I tried the following :

_sketchImageVi

In Swift you can use this extension: [Based on @VietHung's objective-c solution]

Swift 5:

extension UIImage {
      func imageWithColor(color: UIColor) -> UIImage? {
        var image = withRenderingMode(.alwaysTemplate)
        UIGraphicsBeginImageContextWithOptions(size, false, scale)
        color.set()
        image.draw(in: CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: size.width, height: size.height))
        image = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext()!
        UIGraphicsEndImageContext()
        return image
    }
}

Previous Swift version:

extension UIImage {
    func imageWithColor(color: UIColor) -> UIImage? {
        var image = imageWithRenderingMode(.AlwaysTemplate)
        UIGraphicsBeginImageContextWithOptions(size, false, scale)
        color.set()
        image.drawInRect(CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: size.width, height: size.height))
        image = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext()
        UIGraphicsEndImageContext()
        return image
    }
}
