I know it's an old question, but someone may find it useful. It's only Swift version:

 //set the timer, which will update your progress bar. You can use whatever time interval you want

 private func setupProgressTimer() {
    timer = Timer.scheduledTimer(withTimeInterval: 0.02, repeats: true, block: { [weak self] (completion) in
        guard let self = self else { return }
        self.updateProgress()
    })
}

//update progression of video, based on it's own data

private func updateProgress() {
    guard let duration = player?.currentItem?.duration.seconds,
        let currentMoment = player?.currentItem?.currentTime().seconds else { return }

    progressBar.progress = Float(currentMoment / duration)
}
