To get tap events through the UITransitionView, set the containerView's userInteractionEnabled to false. This is if you're doing a custom transition animation by using UIViewControllerAnimatedTransitioning.

Example, in your animateTransition(_:):

func animateTransition(transitionContext: UIViewControllerContextTransitioning) {

    let containerView = transitionContext.containerView
    containerView.isUserInteractionEnabled = false

    ...
}
