Get App Name in Swift

Question

How do I get the application name in Swift?

Googling gave me this:

[[[NSBundle mainBundle] infoDictionary] objectForKey:@\"CFBundleName\"];

For swift 5, iOS 13*

As mentioned before, it‘s an optional, so put it in a guard statement. I do this using a struct:

struct Model {
    struct ProgVariablen{
        static var appBundleName:String {
            get {guard Bundle.main.infoDictionary != nil else {return ""}
                return Bundle.main.infoDictionary!["CFBundleName"] as! String
            }//end get
        }//end computed property
        static var appBundleShortVersion:String {
            get {guard Bundle.main.infoDictionary != nil else {return ""}
                return Bundle.main.infoDictionary ["CFBundleShortVersionString"] as! String
            }//end get
        }//end computed property
        static var appBundleBuild:String {
            get {guard Bundle.main.infoDictionary != nil else {return ""}
                return Bundle.main.infoDictionary["CFBundleVersion"] as! String
        }//end get
    }//end computed property

    //initialsieren der Variablen
    init(
         appBundleName:String,
         appBundleShortVersion:String,
         appBundleBuild:String,
         )
    {
        // do here nothing for 'let'
        // do here nothing for 'computed properties'
        // your other ‘var’ are here like:
        // ProgVariablen.var1 = var1
    }//end init
    }//end struct ProgVariablen
}//end struct Model

Usage:

print("Model.ProgVariablen.appBundleName: '\(Model.ProgVariablen.appBundleName)'")
