ScrollView and keyboard in Swift

by

In ViewDidLoad, register the notifications:

NotificationCenter.default.addObserver(self, selector: #selector(keyboardWillShow), name:UIResponder.keyboardWillShowNotification, object: nil)
NotificationCenter.default.addObserver(self, selector: #selector(keyboardWillHide), name:UIResponder.keyboardWillHideNotification, object: nil)

Add below observer methods which does the automatic scrolling when keyboard appears.

@objc func keyboardWillShow(notification:NSNotification) {

    guard let userInfo = notification.userInfo else { return }
    var keyboardFrame:CGRect = (userInfo[UIResponder.keyboardFrameBeginUserInfoKey] as! NSValue).cgRectValue
    keyboardFrame = self.view.convert(keyboardFrame, from: nil)

    var contentInset:UIEdgeInsets = self.scrollView.contentInset
    contentInset.bottom = keyboardFrame.size.height + 20
    scrollView.contentInset = contentInset
}

@objc func keyboardWillHide(notification:NSNotification) {

    let contentInset:UIEdgeInsets = UIEdgeInsets.zero
    scrollView.contentInset = contentInset
}
