最简单的方法是从视图控制器堆栈中取出最后一个:

if let viewController: UIViewController = navigationController.viewControllers.last {
    // This `viewController` is on the top.
}

presentViewController显示一个视图控制器。它不会返回一个视图控制器。如果你不使用UINavigationController，你可能正在寻找presenttedviewcontroller，你需要从根开始，向下迭代所呈现的视图。

if var topController = UIApplication.sharedApplication().keyWindow?.rootViewController {
    while let presentedViewController = topController.presentedViewController {
        topController = presentedViewController
    }

    // topController should now be your topmost view controller
}

对于Swift 3+:

if var topController = UIApplication.shared.keyWindow?.rootViewController {
    while let presentedViewController = topController.presentedViewController {
        topController = presentedViewController
    }

    // topController should now be your topmost view controller
}

适用于iOS 13+

let keyWindow = UIApplication.shared.windows.filter {$0.isKeyWindow}.first

if var topController = keyWindow?.rootViewController {
    while let presentedViewController = topController.presentedViewController {
        topController = presentedViewController
    }

// topController should now be your topmost view controller
}

在一个非常罕见的情况下，使用自定义segue，最顶层的视图控制器不在导航堆栈或选项卡栏控制器中或被呈现，但它的视图被插入到关键窗口子视图的顶部。

在这种情况下，有必要检查UIApplication.shared.keyWindow.subviews.last == self。视图来确定当前视图控制器是否是最顶端的。

使用这段代码找到top most UIViewController

func getTopViewController() -> UIViewController? {
    var topController: UIViewController? = UIApplication.shared.keyWindow?.rootViewController
    while topController?.presentedViewController != nil {
        topController = topController?.presentedViewController
    }
    return topController
}

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。

extension UIViewController {
    func topMostViewController() -> UIViewController {
        if self.presentedViewController == nil {
            return self
        }
        if let navigation = self.presentedViewController as? UINavigationController {
            return navigation.visibleViewController.topMostViewController()
        }
        if let tab = self.presentedViewController as? UITabBarController {
            if let selectedTab = tab.selectedViewController {
                return selectedTab.topMostViewController()
            }
            return tab.topMostViewController()
        }
        return self.presentedViewController!.topMostViewController()
    }
}

extension UIApplication {
    func topMostViewController() -> UIViewController? {
        return self.keyWindow?.rootViewController?.topMostViewController()
    }
}
