Now these days its very common and popular to share content or post on social app like Facebook
, Twitter
, Email
& Google+
. I have some stuff that I have used to share content and posts on social apps. Add the following code in the ViewController.swift file in order to be able to post on Facebook
, Twitter
, Email
& Google+
by tapping the relative buttons.
In this writing, I want explore how to use MFMailComposeViewController
with Swift to send e-mails within your app as a walkthrough. My focus here is “quick and dirty” pragmatism, so that we can easily see what the inter-working components of MFMailComposeViewController
are. That being said, here’s an important disclaimer – I’m going to overload the View Controller’s responsibilities in the examples to follow.

import Social import MessageUI class ViewController: UIViewController, MFMailComposeViewControllerDelegate { @IBAction func tapEmail_btn(_ sender: Any) { let emailTitle = "Subject of mail" let messageBody = "Content of mail" let mc: MFMailComposeViewController = MFMailComposeViewController() mc.mailComposeDelegate = self mc.setSubject(emailTitle) mc.setMessageBody(messageBody, isHTML: false) mc.setToRecipients(toRecipents) self.present(mc, animated: true, completion: nil) } func mailComposeController(_ controller: MFMailComposeViewController, didFinishWith result: MFMailComposeResult, error: Error?) { switch result { case .cancelled: print("Mail cancelled") case .saved: print("Mail saved") case .sent: print("Mail sent") case .failed: print("Mail sent failure: \(error?.localizedDescription)") default: break } self.dismiss(animated: true, completion: nil) } } |
SLComposeViewController
is part of the Social framework, provided by Apple. It presents to the users a view that enables them to edit a post that’s going to be shared on social networks, such as Facebook, Twitter and Google+. In order to share content, you’ll provide theSLComposeViewController
with information such as URL and initial text. so we’re sharing our code in this blog post.
