这是乔伊回答的重要补充

这适用于你想用UINavigationController呈现一个模糊背景的UIViewController的情况。

// suppose you've done blur effect with your presented view controller
UINavigationController *nav = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController];

// this is very important, if you don't do this, the blur effect will darken after view did appeared
// the reason is that you actually present navigation controller, not presented controller
// please note it's "OverFullScreen", not "OverCurrentContext"
nav.modalPresentationStyle = UIModalPresentationOverFullScreen;

UIViewController *presentedViewController = [[UIViewController alloc] init]; 
// the presented view controller's modalPresentationStyle is "OverCurrentContext"
presentedViewController.modalPresentationStyle = UIModalPresentationOverCurrentContext;

[presentingViewController presentViewController:nav animated:YES completion:nil];

享受吧!

简单的答案是添加一个子视图并改变它的alpha。

UIView *mainView = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 200, 200)];
UIView *subView = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:popupView.frame];
UIColor * backImgColor = [UIColor colorWithPatternImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"blue_Img.png"]];
subView.backgroundColor = backImgColor;
subView.alpha = 0.5;
[mainView addSubview:subView];

以下是Swift 2.0解决方案的代码，已经在接受的答案中提供:

    //only apply the blur if the user hasn't disabled transparency effects
    if !UIAccessibilityIsReduceTransparencyEnabled() {
        self.view.backgroundColor = UIColor.clearColor()

        let blurEffect = UIBlurEffect(style: UIBlurEffectStyle.Dark)
        let blurEffectView = UIVisualEffectView(effect: blurEffect)
        //always fill the view
        blurEffectView.frame = self.view.bounds
        blurEffectView.autoresizingMask = [.FlexibleWidth, .FlexibleHeight]

        self.view.addSubview(blurEffectView) //if you have more UIViews, use an insertSubview API to place it where needed
    } else {
        self.view.backgroundColor = UIColor.blackColor()
    }

公认的答案是正确的，但这里缺少一个重要的步骤，如果这个视图-您想要模糊的背景-是使用

[self presentViewController:vc animated:YES completion:nil]

默认情况下，这将抵消模糊，因为UIKit删除演示者的视图，这实际上是模糊的。为了避免这种删除，将这一行添加到前一行之前

vc。modalPresentationStyle = UIModalPresentationOverFullScreen;

或者使用其他Over样式。

我决定发布一个书面的Objective-C版本，从接受的答案只是在这个问题上提供更多的选项。

- (UIView *)applyBlurToView:(UIView *)view withEffectStyle:(UIBlurEffectStyle)style andConstraints:(BOOL)addConstraints
{
  //only apply the blur if the user hasn't disabled transparency effects
  if(!UIAccessibilityIsReduceTransparencyEnabled())
  {
    UIBlurEffect *blurEffect = [UIBlurEffect effectWithStyle:style];
    UIVisualEffectView *blurEffectView = [[UIVisualEffectView alloc] initWithEffect:blurEffect];
    blurEffectView.frame = view.bounds;

    [view addSubview:blurEffectView];

    if(addConstraints)
    {
      //add auto layout constraints so that the blur fills the screen upon rotating device
      [blurEffectView setTranslatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints:NO];

      [view addConstraint:[NSLayoutConstraint constraintWithItem:blurEffectView
                                                       attribute:NSLayoutAttributeTop

                                                      multiplier:1
                                                        constant:0]];

      [view addConstraint:[NSLayoutConstraint constraintWithItem:blurEffectView
                                                       attribute:NSLayoutAttributeLeading
                                                       relatedBy:NSLayoutRelationEqual
                                                          toItem:view

                                                        constant:0]];

      [view addConstraint:[NSLayoutConstraint constraintWithItem:blurEffectView
                                                       attribute:NSLayoutAttributeTrailing
                                                       relatedBy:NSLayoutRelationEqual

    }
  }
  else
  {
    view.backgroundColor = [[UIColor blackColor] colorWithAlphaComponent:0.7];
  }

  return view;
}

如果你想要，如果你只支持纵向模式，或者我只是在这个函数中添加了一个标志来使用它们，可以删除这些限制。

你可以使用UIVisualEffectView来实现这个效果。这是一个本地API，经过了性能和电池寿命的微调，而且很容易实现。

迅速:

//only apply the blur if the user hasn't disabled transparency effects
if !UIAccessibility.isReduceTransparencyEnabled {
    view.backgroundColor = .clear

    let blurEffect = UIBlurEffect(style: .dark)
    let blurEffectView = UIVisualEffectView(effect: blurEffect)
    //always fill the view
    blurEffectView.frame = self.view.bounds
    blurEffectView.autoresizingMask = [.flexibleWidth, .flexibleHeight]

    view.addSubview(blurEffectView) //if you have more UIViews, use an insertSubview API to place it where needed
} else {
    view.backgroundColor = .black
}

objective - c:

//only apply the blur if the user hasn't disabled transparency effects
if (!UIAccessibilityIsReduceTransparencyEnabled()) {
    self.view.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];

    UIBlurEffect *blurEffect = [UIBlurEffect effectWithStyle:UIBlurEffectStyleDark];
    UIVisualEffectView *blurEffectView = [[UIVisualEffectView alloc] initWithEffect:blurEffect];
    //always fill the view
    blurEffectView.frame = self.view.bounds;
    blurEffectView.autoresizingMask = UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleWidth | UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleHeight;

    [self.view addSubview:blurEffectView]; //if you have more UIViews, use an insertSubview API to place it where needed
} else {
    self.view.backgroundColor = [UIColor blackColor];
}

如果你以模态方式呈现这个视图控制器来模糊底层内容，你需要将模态呈现风格设置为Over Current Context，并将背景颜色设置为clear，以确保底层视图控制器在顶部呈现时仍然可见。
