I am thinking that perhaps one thing is being overlooked here. Perhaps it is better to pass the parent viewController into the function that is using the viewController. If you are fishing around in the view hierarchy to find the top view controller that it is probably violating separation of the Model layer and UI layer and is a code smell. Just pointing this out, I did the same, then realized it was much simpler just to pass it in to function, by having the model operation return to the UI layer where I have a reference to the view controller.

我认为你需要一个公认的答案和@fishstix的组合

+ (UIViewController*) topMostController
{
    UIViewController *topController = [UIApplication sharedApplication].keyWindow.rootViewController;

    while (topController.presentedViewController) {
        topController = topController.presentedViewController;
    }

    return topController;
}

Swift 3.0 +

func topMostController() -> UIViewController? {
    guard let window = UIApplication.shared.keyWindow, let rootViewController = window.rootViewController else {
        return nil
    }

    var topController = rootViewController

    while let newTopController = topController.presentedViewController {
        topController = newTopController
    }

    return topController
}

为了避免很多复杂性，我通过在委托中创建一个viewController来跟踪当前的viewController，并在每个viewDidLoad方法中设置它为self，这样每当你加载一个新视图时，委托中持有的viewController将对应于该视图的viewController。这可能是丑陋的，但它工作得很好，没有必要有一个导航控制器或任何废话。

试试这个

let topVisibleVC = UIApplication.shared.keyWindow?.rootViewController?.visibleViewController

我的问题有点不同，我在我的应用程序中使用SWRevealViewController。 我使用了Yuchen Zhong的答案，但它总是返回topViewController作为SWRevealViewController。对于那些使用SWRevealViewController或其他一些pod来开发侧菜单的人。以下是我对钟宇晨回答的延伸:

extension UIApplication {
class func topViewController() -> UIViewController? {
    var topVC = shared.keyWindow!.rootViewController
    while true {
        if let presented = topVC?.presentedViewController {
            topVC = presented
        } else if let nav = topVC as? UINavigationController {
            topVC = nav.visibleViewController
        } else if let tab = topVC as? UITabBarController {
            topVC = tab.selectedViewController
        }else if let swRVC = topVC as? SWRevealViewController {
            topVC = swRVC.frontViewController
        } else {
            break
        }
    }
    return topVC
}
}

iOS 4在UIWindow上引入了rootViewController属性:

[UIApplication sharedApplication].keyWindow.rootViewController;

你需要在创建视图控制器后自己设置。
