Swift UITextField extension:

extension UITextField {
    func toggleSecureEntry() {
        let wasFirstResponder = isFirstResponder

        if wasFirstResponder { resignFirstResponder() }
        isSecureTextEntry.toggle()
        if wasFirstResponder { becomeFirstResponder() }
    }
}

Setting textField.text solution also works in some situations but not for my need (Custom font with two text fields. Caused font changes and glitches on runtime.) Adding here too.

func toggleSecureEntry() {
    isSecureTextEntry.toggle()
    let originalText = text
    text = nil
    text = originalText
}
