对我来说，最好的解决方案是一个带有函数的扩展。 用这个扩展名创建一个swift文件

首先是UIWindow扩展:

public extension UIWindow {
    var visibleViewController: UIViewController? {
        return UIWindow.visibleVC(vc: self.rootViewController)
    }

    static func visibleVC(vc: UIViewController?) -> UIViewController? {
        if let navigationViewController = vc as? UINavigationController {
            return UIWindow.visibleVC(vc: navigationViewController.visibleViewController)
        } else if let tabBarVC = vc as? UITabBarController {
            return UIWindow.visibleVC(vc: tabBarVC.selectedViewController)
        } else {
            if let presentedVC = vc?.presentedViewController {
                return UIWindow.visibleVC(vc: presentedVC)
            } else {
                return vc
            }
        }
    }
}

在该文件中添加函数

func visibleViewController() -> UIViewController? {
    let appDelegate = UIApplication.shared.delegate
    if let window = appDelegate!.window {
        return window?.visibleViewController
    }
    return nil
}

如果你想使用它，你可以在任何地方调用它。 例子:

  override func viewDidLoad() {
    super.viewDidLoad()
      if let topVC = visibleViewController() {
             //show some label or text field 
    }
}

文件代码如下:

import UIKit

public extension UIWindow {
    var visibleViewController: UIViewController? {
        return UIWindow.visibleVC(vc: self.rootViewController)
    }

    static func visibleVC(vc: UIViewController?) -> UIViewController? {
        if let navigationViewController = vc as? UINavigationController {
            return UIWindow.visibleVC(vc: navigationViewController.visibleViewController)
        } else if let tabBarVC = vc as? UITabBarController {
            return UIWindow.visibleVC(vc: tabBarVC.selectedViewController)
        } else {
            if let presentedVC = vc?.presentedViewController {
                return UIWindow.visibleVC(vc: presentedVC)
            } else {
                return vc
            }
        }
    }
}

func visibleViewController() -> UIViewController? {
    let appDelegate = UIApplication.shared.delegate
    if let window = appDelegate!.window {
        return window?.visibleViewController
    }
    return nil
}

对于swift 4 / 5 +获取topmost viewController

// MARK: UIApplication extensions

extension UIApplication {

    class func getTopViewController(base: UIViewController? = UIApplication.shared.keyWindow?.rootViewController) -> UIViewController? {

        if let nav = base as? UINavigationController {
            return getTopViewController(base: nav.visibleViewController)

        } else if let tab = base as? UITabBarController, let selected = tab.selectedViewController {
            return getTopViewController(base: selected)

        } else if let presented = base?.presentedViewController {
            return getTopViewController(base: presented)
        }
        return base
    }
}

如何使用

if let topVC = UIApplication.getTopViewController() {
   topVC.view.addSubview(forgotPwdView)
}

试试这个

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

你把密码放哪了?

我在我的演示中尝试了你的代码，我发现，如果你把代码放进去

func application(application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [NSObject: AnyObject]?) -> Bool { 

将失败，因为关键窗口已经设置。

但我把你的代码放到了视图控制器中

override func viewDidLoad() {

它就是有用。

你可以在AppDelegate中定义一个UIViewController变量，并在每个viewWillAppear中设置这个变量为self。(然而，dianz的答案是最好的答案。)

override func viewWillAppear(animated: Bool) {
    super.viewWillAppear(animated)
    let appDel = UIApplication.sharedApplication().delegate as! AppDelegate
    appDel.currentVC = self
}

对于Swift 5+， iOS 13 +

extension UIViewController {
    static func topMostViewController() -> UIViewController? {
        if #available(iOS 13.0, *) {
            let keyWindow = UIApplication.shared.windows.filter {$0.isKeyWindow}.first
            return keyWindow?.rootViewController?.topMostViewController()
        }
        
        return UIApplication.shared.keyWindow?.rootViewController?.topMostViewController()
    }
    
    func topMostViewController() -> UIViewController? {
        if let navigationController = self as? UINavigationController {
            return navigationController.topViewController?.topMostViewController()
        }
        else if let tabBarController = self as? UITabBarController {
            if let selectedViewController = tabBarController.selectedViewController {
                return selectedViewController.topMostViewController()
            }
            return tabBarController.topMostViewController()
        }
            
        else if let presentedViewController = self.presentedViewController {
            return presentedViewController.topMostViewController()
        }
        
        else {
            return self
        }
    }
}

用法:

当你在没有UIViewController实例的情况下获取topMostViewController时

guard let viewController = UIViewController.topMostViewController() else { return }
print(viewController)

当你获取UIViewController实例的topMostViewController时

let yourVC = UIViewController()
guard let vc = yourVC.topMostViewController() else { return }
print(vc)
