Answer 1

This is working with the GM release of Xcode. Guess it was just a bug.

Answer 2

I'm not using Swift, but I had basically the same problem with straight up Objective-C. Before iOS8, my UIDocumentInteractionController displayed pretty much every file type i threw at it including PDF. But in iOS8, the PDF files would no longer display for me.

I WAS creating it this way:

[[[UIDocumentInteractionController alloc] init] autorelease]

I changed the call to create it like this:

[UIDocumentInteractionController interactionControllerWithURL:myUrl]

And now my PDF files display again (and the others appear to be ok too still).
