iPhone-X - How to force user to swipe twice home indicator to go home-screen

Question

I\'m using the code below to hide the home indicator on iPhone X, which is working fine in the emulator.

-(BOOL)prefersHomeIndicatorAutoHidden
{
    return YES;
         


        

Answer 1

I had the same problem.

PrefersHomeIndicatorAutoHidden must return NO but also PreferredScreenEdgesDeferringSystemGestures must be overridden and return UIRectEdgeBottom.

Swift 4.2

override var prefersHomeIndicatorAutoHidden: Bool {
  return false
}

override var preferredScreenEdgesDeferringSystemGestures: UIRectEdge {
  return UIRectEdge.bottom
}
