Question

In iOS 13 there is a new behaviour for modal view controller when being presented.

Now it's not fullscreen by default and when I try to slide down, the app just dismiss the View Controller automatically.

How can I prevent this behaviour and get back to the old fullscreen modal vc?

modal behaviour

Thanks

Answer

With iOS 13, as stated in the Platforms State of the Union during the WWDC 2019, Apple introduced a new default card presentation. In order to force the fullscreen you have to specify it explicitly with:

let vc = UIViewController()
vc.modalPresentationStyle = .fullScreen //or .overFullScreen for transparency
self.present(vc, animated: true, completion: nil)
