这个答案是基于Mitja Semolic之前出色的回答。我已经将它转换为swift 3，添加了一个解释，在评论中发生了什么，使它成为一个UIViewController的扩展，这样任何VC都可以随意调用它，添加了一个未模糊的视图来显示选择性应用，并添加了一个完成块，以便调用视图控制器可以在完成模糊时做任何它想做的事情。

    import UIKit
//This extension implements a blur to the entire screen, puts up a HUD and then waits and dismisses the view.
    extension UIViewController {
        func blurAndShowHUD(duration: Double, message: String, completion: @escaping () -> Void) { //with completion block
            //1. Create the blur effect & the view it will occupy
            let blurEffect = UIBlurEffect(style: UIBlurEffectStyle.light)
            let blurEffectView = UIVisualEffectView()//(effect: blurEffect)
            blurEffectView.frame = self.view.bounds
            blurEffectView.autoresizingMask = [.flexibleWidth, .flexibleHeight]

        //2. Add the effect view to the main view
            self.view.addSubview(blurEffectView)
        //3. Create the hud and add it to the main view
        let hud = HudView.getHUD(view: self.view, withMessage: message)
        self.view.addSubview(hud)
        //4. Begin applying the blur effect to the effect view
        UIView.animate(withDuration: 0.01, animations: {
            blurEffectView.effect = blurEffect
        })
        //5. Halt the blur effects application to achieve the desired blur radius
        self.view.pauseAnimationsInThisView(delay: 0.004)
        //6. Remove the view (& the HUD) after the completion of the duration
        DispatchQueue.main.asyncAfter(deadline: .now() + duration) {
            blurEffectView.removeFromSuperview()
            hud.removeFromSuperview()
            self.view.resumeAnimationsInThisView()
            completion()
        }
    }
}

extension UIView {
    public func pauseAnimationsInThisView(delay: Double) {
        let time = delay + CFAbsoluteTimeGetCurrent()
        let timer = CFRunLoopTimerCreateWithHandler(kCFAllocatorDefault, time, 0, 0, 0, { timer in
            let layer = self.layer
            let pausedTime = layer.convertTime(CACurrentMediaTime(), from: nil)
            layer.speed = 0.0
            layer.timeOffset = pausedTime
        })
        CFRunLoopAddTimer(CFRunLoopGetCurrent(), timer, CFRunLoopMode.commonModes)
    }
    public func resumeAnimationsInThisView() {
        let pausedTime  = layer.timeOffset

        layer.speed = 1.0
        layer.timeOffset = 0.0
        layer.beginTime = layer.convertTime(CACurrentMediaTime(), from: nil) - pausedTime
    }
}

我已经确认它适用于iOS 10.3.1和iOS 11

苹果为UIImage类提供了一个名为UIImage+ImageEffects.h的扩展。在这个类中，您可以使用所需的方法来模糊视图

在Xcode中你可以很容易地做到。遵循xcode中的步骤。在你的uiview或imageview上拖动视觉效果视图。

快乐编码:)

Swift 3版本的凯文的答案返回模糊的图像-

func blurBgImage(image: UIImage) -> UIImage? {
        let radius: CGFloat = 20;
        let context = CIContext(options: nil);
        let inputImage = CIImage(cgImage: image.cgImage!);
        let filter = CIFilter(name: "CIGaussianBlur");
        filter?.setValue(inputImage, forKey: kCIInputImageKey);
        filter?.setValue("\(radius)", forKey:kCIInputRadiusKey);

        if let result = filter?.value(forKey: kCIOutputImageKey) as? CIImage{

            let rect = CGRect(origin: CGPoint(x: radius * 2,y :radius * 2), size: CGSize(width: image.size.width - radius * 4, height: image.size.height - radius * 4))

            if let cgImage = context.createCGImage(result, from: rect){
                return UIImage(cgImage: cgImage);
                }
        }
        return nil;
    }

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];
