Prevent screenshot or screenrecording on iOS devices
A simple wrapper view that is able to prevent screenshot or screen recording on iOS.
iOS 12+.
SwiftUI will need iOS 13+.
Swift Package Manager is a tool for managing the distribution of Swift code. It’s integrated with the Swift build system to automate the process of downloading, compiling, and linking dependencies.
Xcode 11+ is required to build ScreenshotPreventing using Swift Package Manager.
To integrate ScreenshotPreventing into your Xcode project using Swift Package Manager, add it to the dependencies value of your Package.swift
:
dependencies: [
.package(url: "https://github.com/yoxisem544/ScreenshotPreventing.git", .upToNextMajor(from: "1.4.0"))
]
For ScreenshotPreventing, use the following entry in your Podfile:
pod 'ScreenshotPreventing', '~> 1.4.0'
# or
pod 'ScreenshotPreventing/RxSwift', '~> 1.4.0'
# or SwiftUI
pod 'ScreenshotPreventing/SwiftUI', '~> 1.4.0'
Clone this project, then
cd ScreenshotPreventing
# For normal demo
open Demo/Demo.xcodeproj
# For SwiftUI demo
open Demo-SwiftUI/Demo-SwiftUI.xcodeproj
Then build for any iOS simulator to test this out.
By triggering screenshot on simulator, look for Simulator > Device > Trigger Screenshot
.
You can wrap view you don’t want to be screenshot inside ScreenshotPreventingView
import UIKit
import ScreenshotPreventing
class ViewController: UIViewController {
let stack = UIStackView()
let container = ScreenshotPreventingView(contentView: stack)
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
// add to subview here.
}
}
Or you can setup content view later.
import UIKit
import ScreenshotPreventing
class ViewController: UIViewController {
let stack = UIStackView()
let container = ScreenshotPreventingView()
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
// add to subview here.
container.setup(contentView: stack)
}
}
Simply wrap your view inside ScreenshotPrevent
View.
You should pass in a isProtected binding to toggle on whether to prevent screenshot or not.
import SwiftUI
import ScreenshotPreventingSwiftUI
struct ContentView: View {
@State private var preventScreenshot = false
var body: some View {
ScreenshotPrevent(isProtected: preventScreenshot) {
Text("Hello")
.padding()
.background(Color.yellow)
.cornerRadius(12)
}
}
}
or using view modifier extension
import SwiftUI
import ScreenshotPreventingSwiftUI
struct ContentView: View {
@State private var preventScreenshot = false
var body: some View {
Text("Hello")
.padding()
.background(Color.yellow)
.cornerRadius(12)
.screenshotProtected(isProtected: preventScreenshot)
}
}
If you use RxSwift in your project, there is a Rx extension to drive preventScreenCapture
property on ScreenshotPreventingView
.
Use RxScreenshotPreventing
package for this extension.
whetherOrNotToPreventScreenshotObservable
.bind(to: screenshotPreventingView.rx.preventScreenCapture)
.disposed(by: bag)
