Question

So I followed an AppCoda tutorial on rounding the corners of a profile image, and it worked fine, except for one thing. Wherever the image was rounded, there is a bit of bl

A simple solution is that you can enlarge layer's bounds a little bit to cover the edge of view's image:

CGFloat offset = 1.f; // .5f is also good enough
self.imageview.image = image;
self.imageview.layer.cornerRadius = 10.0;
self.imageview.layer.borderWidth = 3.0 + offset;
self.imageview.layer.borderColor = UIColor.whiteColor().CGColor;
self.imageview.layer.masksToBounds = YES;

[self.imageview.layer setBounds:CGRectMake(-offset,
                                           -offset,
                                           CGRectGetWidth(self.imageview.frame)  + offset * 2.f,
                                           CGRectGetHeight(self.imageview.frame) + offset * 2.f)];
