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

核心形象

由于截图中的图像是静态的，你可以使用Core image中的CIGaussianBlur(需要iOS 6)。以下是示例:https://github.com/evanwdavis/Fun-with-Masks/blob/master/Fun%20with%20Masks/EWDBlurExampleVC.m

注意，这比本页上的其他选项要慢。

#import <QuartzCore/QuartzCore.h>

- (UIImage*) blur:(UIImage*)theImage
{   
    // ***********If you need re-orienting (e.g. trying to blur a photo taken from the device camera front facing camera in portrait mode)
    // theImage = [self reOrientIfNeeded:theImage];

    // create our blurred image
    CIContext *context = [CIContext contextWithOptions:nil];
    CIImage *inputImage = [CIImage imageWithCGImage:theImage.CGImage];

    // setting up Gaussian Blur (we could use one of many filters offered by Core Image)
    CIFilter *filter = [CIFilter filterWithName:@"CIGaussianBlur"];
    [filter setValue:inputImage forKey:kCIInputImageKey];
    [filter setValue:[NSNumber numberWithFloat:15.0f] forKey:@"inputRadius"];
    CIImage *result = [filter valueForKey:kCIOutputImageKey];

    // CIGaussianBlur has a tendency to shrink the image a little, 
    // this ensures it matches up exactly to the bounds of our original image
    CGImageRef cgImage = [context createCGImage:result fromRect:[inputImage extent]];

    UIImage *returnImage = [UIImage imageWithCGImage:cgImage];//create a UIImage for this function to "return" so that ARC can manage the memory of the blur... ARC can't manage CGImageRefs so we need to release it before this function "returns" and ends.
    CGImageRelease(cgImage);//release CGImageRef because ARC doesn't manage this on its own.

    return returnImage;

    // *************** if you need scaling
    // return [[self class] scaleIfNeeded:cgImage];
}

+(UIImage*) scaleIfNeeded:(CGImageRef)cgimg {
    bool isRetina = [[[UIDevice currentDevice] systemVersion] intValue] >= 4 && [[UIScreen mainScreen] scale] == 2.0;
    if (isRetina) {
        return [UIImage imageWithCGImage:cgimg scale:2.0 orientation:UIImageOrientationUp];
    } else {
        return [UIImage imageWithCGImage:cgimg];
    }
}

- (UIImage*) reOrientIfNeeded:(UIImage*)theImage{

    if (theImage.imageOrientation != UIImageOrientationUp) {

        CGAffineTransform reOrient = CGAffineTransformIdentity;

                reOrient = CGAffineTransformRotate(reOrient, M_PI);
                break;

                reOrient = CGAffineTransformRotate(reOrient, M_PI_2);
                break;
            case UIImageOrientationRight:
            case UIImageOrientationRightMirrored:
                reOrient = CGAffineTransformTranslate(reOrient, 0, theImage.size.height);
                reOrient = CGAffineTransformRotate(reOrient, -M_PI_2);
                break;
            case UIImageOrientationUp:
            case UIImageOrientationUpMirrored:
                break;
        }

        switch (theImage.imageOrientation) {
            case UIImageOrientationUpMirrored:
            case UIImageOrientationDownMirrored:
                reOrient = CGAffineTransformTranslate(reOrient, theImage.size.width, 0);
                reOrient = CGAffineTransformScale(reOrient, -1, 1);
                break;
            case UIImageOrientationLeftMirrored:
            case UIImageOrientationRightMirrored:
                reOrient = CGAffineTransformTranslate(reOrient, theImage.size.height, 0);
                reOrient = CGAffineTransformScale(reOrient, -1, 1);
                break;
            case UIImageOrientationUp:
            case UIImageOrientationDown:
            case UIImageOrientationLeft:
            case UIImageOrientationRight:
                break;
        }

        CGContextRef myContext = CGBitmapContextCreate(NULL, theImage.size.width, theImage.size.height, CGImageGetBitsPerComponent(theImage.CGImage), 0, CGImageGetColorSpace(theImage.CGImage), CGImageGetBitmapInfo(theImage.CGImage));

        }

        CGImageRef CGImg = CGBitmapContextCreateImage(myContext);
        theImage = [UIImage imageWithCGImage:CGImg];

        CGImageRelease(CGImg);
        CGContextRelease(myContext);
    }

    return theImage;
}

叠加模糊(方块+高斯)

这实现了盒子和高斯模糊的混合。比非加速高斯快7倍，但不像盒子模糊那么难看。请在这里(Java插件版本)或这里(JavaScript版本)查看演示。该算法用于KDE和Camera+等。它不使用加速框架，但速度很快。

加速框架

In the session “Implementing Engaging UI on iOS” from WWDC 2013 Apple explains how to create a blurred background (at 14:30), and mentions a method applyLightEffect implemented in the sample code using Accelerate.framework. GPUImage uses OpenGL shaders to create dynamic blurs. It has several types of blur: GPUImageBoxBlurFilter, GPUImageFastBlurFilter, GaussianSelectiveBlur, GPUImageGaussianBlurFilter. There is even a GPUImageiOSBlurFilter that “should fully replicate the blur effect provided by iOS 7's control panel” (tweet, article). The article is detailed and informative.

    -(UIImage *)blurryGPUImage:(UIImage *)image withBlurLevel:(NSInteger)blur {
        GPUImageFastBlurFilter *blurFilter = [GPUImageFastBlurFilter new];
        blurFilter.blurSize = blur;
        UIImage *result = [blurFilter imageByFilteringImage:image];
        return result;
    }

From indieambitions.com: Perform a blur using vImage. The algorithm is also used in iOS-RealTimeBlur. From Nick Lockwood: https://github.com/nicklockwood/FXBlurView The example shows the blur over a scroll view. It blurs with dispatch_async, then syncs to call updates with UITrackingRunLoopMode so the blur is not lagged when UIKit gives more priority to the scroll of the UIScrollView. This is explained in Nick's book iOS Core Animation, which btw it's great. iOS-blur This takes the blurring layer of the UIToolbar and puts it elsewhere. Apple will reject your app if you use this method. See https://github.com/mochidev/MDBlurView/issues/4 From Evadne blog: LiveFrost: Fast, Synchronous UIView Snapshot Convolving. Great code and a great read. Some ideas from this post: Use a serial queue to throttle updates from CADisplayLink. Reuse bitmap contexts unless bounds change. Draw smaller images using -[CALayer renderInContext:] with a 0.5f scale factor.

其他东西

安迪·马图斯查克在推特上说:“你知道，在很多地方，我们看起来是实时的，但它是静态的，用的是聪明的技巧。”

在doubleencore.com网站上，他们说:“我们发现，在大多数情况下，10点模糊半径加上10点饱和度的增加最能模拟iOS 7的模糊效果。”

苹果sbfproceuralwallpaperview的私有头文件。

最后，这不是一个真正的模糊，但记住你可以设置rasterizationScale来获得一个像素化的图像:http://www.dimzzy.com/blog/2010/11/blur-effect-for-uiview/

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];

为了帮助大家，下面是我根据Jordan h的回答创建的一个快速扩展。它是用swift 5编写的，可以在Objective C中使用。

extension UIView {

    @objc func blurBackground(style: UIBlurEffect.Style, fallbackColor: UIColor) {
        if !UIAccessibility.isReduceTransparencyEnabled {
            self.backgroundColor = .clear

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

            self.insertSubview(blurEffectView, at: 0)
        } else {
            self.backgroundColor = fallbackColor
        }
    }

}

注意:如果你想在不影响文本的情况下模糊UILabel的背景，你应该创建一个容器UIView，将UILabel作为子视图添加到容器UIView，将UILabel的backgroundColor设置为UIColor。clear，然后调用blurBackground(style: UIBlurEffect。样式，fallbackColor: UIColor)的容器UIView。下面是用Swift 5写的一个简单的例子:

let frame = CGRect(x: 50, y: 200, width: 200, height: 50)
let containerView = UIView(frame: frame)
let label = UILabel(frame: frame)
label.text = "Some Text"
label.backgroundColor = UIColor.clear
containerView.addSubview(label)
containerView.blurBackground(style: .dark, fallbackColor: UIColor.black)

2019代码

下面是一个使用@AdamBardon技巧的更完整的例子。

@IBDesignable class ButtonOrSomethingWithBlur: UIButton {

    var ba: UIViewPropertyAnimator?
    private lazy var blurry: BlurryBall = { return BlurryBall() }()

    override func didMoveToSuperview() {
        super.didMoveToSuperview()
        
        // Setup the blurry ball.  BE SURE TO TEARDOWN.
        // Use superb trick to access the internal guassian level of Apple's
        // standard gpu blurrer per stackoverflow.com/a/55378168/294884
        
        superview?.insertSubview(blurry, belowSubview: self)
        ba = UIViewPropertyAnimator(duration:1, curve:.linear) {[weak self] in
            // note, those duration/curve values are simply unusued
            self?.blurry.effect = UIBlurEffect(style: .extraLight)
        }
        ba?.fractionComplete = live.largeplaybutton_blurfactor
    }
    
    override func willMove(toSuperview newSuperview: UIView?) {
        
        // Teardown for the blurry ball - critical
        
        if newSuperview == nil { print("safe teardown")
            ba?.stopAnimation(true)
            ba?.finishAnimation(at: .current)
        }
    }

    override func layoutSubviews() { super.layoutSubviews()
        blurry.frame = bounds, your drawing frame or whatever
    }

{题外话:作为一个通用的iOS工程问题，didMoveToWindow可能比didMoveToSuperview更适合你。其次，您可以使用其他一些方法来执行拆卸操作，但是拆卸操作就是这里显示的两行代码。

bluryball只是一个UIVisualEffectView。注意视觉效果视图的初始值。如果你碰巧需要圆角或者其他东西，在这门课上做吧。

class BlurryBall: UIVisualEffectView {
    
    override init(effect: UIVisualEffect?) { super.init(effect: effect)
        commonInit() }
    
    required init?(coder aDecoder: NSCoder) { super.init(coder: aDecoder)
        commonInit() }
    
    private func commonInit() {
        clipsToBounds = true
        backgroundColor = .clear
    }
    
    override func layoutSubviews() {
        super.layoutSubviews()
        layer.cornerRadius = bounds.width / 2
    }
}

我不认为我被允许发布代码，但上面提到的WWDC示例代码是正确的。链接如下:https://developer.apple.com/downloads/index.action?name=WWDC%202013

你要找的文件是UIImage上的category，方法是applyLightEffect。

正如我在上面的评论中提到的，除了模糊，苹果模糊还有饱和度和其他东西。简单的模糊是不行的……如果你想模仿他们的风格。
