其中一些答案只对我起了部分作用，将它们组合在AppDelegate中的以下类方法中是我的解决方案。它在iPad上工作，在UITabBarController视图中，在UINavigationController中，在呈现情态时。在iOS 10和13上进行测试。

+ (UIViewController *)rootViewController {
    UIViewController *rootViewController = [UIApplication sharedApplication].delegate.window.rootViewController;
    if([rootViewController isKindOfClass:[UINavigationController class]])
        rootViewController = ((UINavigationController *)rootViewController).viewControllers.firstObject;
    if([rootViewController isKindOfClass:[UITabBarController class]])
        rootViewController = ((UITabBarController *)rootViewController).selectedViewController;
    if (rootViewController.presentedViewController != nil)
        rootViewController = rootViewController.presentedViewController;
    return rootViewController;
}

用法:

[[AppDelegate rootViewController] presentViewController ...

这在Swift中适用于普通的视图控制器，即使屏幕上有一个导航控制器:

let alert = UIAlertController(...)

let alertWindow = UIWindow(frame: UIScreen.main.bounds)
alertWindow.rootViewController = UIViewController()
alertWindow.windowLevel = UIWindowLevelAlert + 1;
alertWindow.makeKeyAndVisible()
alertWindow.rootViewController?.presentViewController(alert, animated: true, completion: nil)

解决方案我使用多年没有任何问题。首先，我扩展UIWindow来找到它的visibleViewController。注意:如果您使用自定义集合*类(如侧菜单)，您应该在以下扩展中为这种情况添加处理程序。在获得top most视图控制器后，很容易呈现UIAlertController，就像UIAlertView一样。

extension UIAlertController {

  func show(animated: Bool = true, completion: (() -> Void)? = nil) {
    if let visibleViewController = UIApplication.shared.keyWindow?.visibleViewController {
      visibleViewController.present(self, animated: animated, completion: completion)
    }
  }

}

extension UIWindow {

  var visibleViewController: UIViewController? {
    guard let rootViewController = rootViewController else {
      return nil
    }
    return visibleViewController(for: rootViewController)
  }

  private func visibleViewController(for controller: UIViewController) -> UIViewController {
    var nextOnStackViewController: UIViewController? = nil
    if let presented = controller.presentedViewController {
      nextOnStackViewController = presented
    } else if let navigationController = controller as? UINavigationController,
      let visible = navigationController.visibleViewController {
      nextOnStackViewController = visible
    } else if let tabBarController = controller as? UITabBarController,
      let visible = (tabBarController.selectedViewController ??
        tabBarController.presentedViewController) {
      nextOnStackViewController = visible
    }

    if let nextOnStackViewController = nextOnStackViewController {
      return visibleViewController(for: nextOnStackViewController)
    } else {
      return controller
    }
  }

}

let alertController = UIAlertController(title: "title", message: "message", preferredStyle: .alert)
//...
var rootViewController = UIApplication.shared.keyWindow?.rootViewController
if let navigationController = rootViewController as? UINavigationController {
    rootViewController = navigationController.viewControllers.first
}
if let tabBarController = rootViewController as? UITabBarController {
    rootViewController = tabBarController.selectedViewController
}
//...
rootViewController?.present(alertController, animated: true, completion: nil)

objective - c

UIAlertController *alertController = [UIAlertController alertControllerWithTitle:@"Title" message:@"message" preferredStyle:UIAlertControllerStyleAlert];
//...
id rootViewController = [UIApplication sharedApplication].delegate.window.rootViewController;
if([rootViewController isKindOfClass:[UINavigationController class]])
{
    rootViewController = ((UINavigationController *)rootViewController).viewControllers.firstObject;
}
if([rootViewController isKindOfClass:[UITabBarController class]])
{
    rootViewController = ((UITabBarController *)rootViewController).selectedViewController;
}
//...
[rootViewController presentViewController:alertController animated:YES completion:nil];

@agilityvision的回答非常好。我有在swift项目中使用的感觉，所以我想我将分享我使用swift 3.0的答案

fileprivate class MyUIAlertController: UIAlertController {

  typealias Handler = () -> Void

  struct AssociatedKeys {
    static var alertWindowKey = "alertWindowKey"
  }

  dynamic var _alertWindow: UIWindow?

  var alertWindow: UIWindow? {
    return objc_getAssociatedObject(self, &AssociatedKeys.alertWindowKey) as? UIWindow
  }


  func setAlert(inWindow window: UIWindow) {
    objc_setAssociatedObject(self, &AssociatedKeys.alertWindowKey, _alertWindow, .OBJC_ASSOCIATION_RETAIN_NONATOMIC)
  }

  func show(completion: Handler? = nil) {
    show(animated: true, completion: completion)
  }

  func show(animated: Bool, completion: Handler? =  nil) {
    _alertWindow = UIWindow(frame: UIScreen.main.bounds)
    _alertWindow?.rootViewController = UIViewController()

    if let delegate: UIApplicationDelegate = UIApplication.shared.delegate, let window = delegate.window {
      _alertWindow?.tintColor = window?.tintColor

    }

    let topWindow = UIApplication.shared.windows.last
    _alertWindow?.windowLevel = topWindow?.windowLevel ?? 0 + 1
    _alertWindow?.makeKeyAndVisible()
    _alertWindow?.rootViewController?.present(self, animated: animated, completion: completion)
  }

  fileprivate override func viewDidDisappear(_ animated: Bool) {
    super.viewDidDisappear(animated)
    _alertWindow?.isHidden = true
    _alertWindow = nil
  }
}

似乎有效:

static UIViewController *viewControllerForView(UIView *view) {
    UIResponder *responder = view;
    do {
        responder = [responder nextResponder];
    }
    while (responder && ![responder isKindOfClass:[UIViewController class]]);
    return (UIViewController *)responder;
}

-(void)showActionSheet {
    UIAlertController *alertController = [UIAlertController alertControllerWithTitle:nil message:nil preferredStyle:UIAlertControllerStyleActionSheet];
    [alertController addAction:[UIAlertAction actionWithTitle:@"Cancel" style:UIAlertActionStyleCancel handler:nil]];
    [alertController addAction:[UIAlertAction actionWithTitle:@"Do it" style:UIAlertActionStyleDefault handler:nil]];
    [viewControllerForView(self) presentViewController:alertController animated:YES completion:nil];
}
