As bshirley suggested UIDocumentInteractionController is a great option to present your PDF. Initially I tried using the 3rd party JSQWebViewController but I was getting a blank screen on device while on simulator it was working. UIDocumentInteractionController worked great for me! For Swift you can do:

let interactionController = UIDocumentInteractionController(url: fileURL)
interactionController.delegate = self
interactionController.presentPreview(animated: true)

and implement the delegate method:

// Mark: UIDocumentInteractionControllerDelegate
func documentInteractionControllerViewControllerForPreview(_ controller: UIDocumentInteractionController) -> UIViewController {
    return UIApplication.shared.keyWindow!.rootViewController!
}

Are you sure you don't want to let the UIDocumentInteractionController do the heavy lifting for you?

UIDocumentInteractionController *dc = [UIDocumentInteractionController interactionControllerWithURL:fileURL];
dc.delegate = self;
[dc presentPreviewAnimated:YES];
