extension UIWindow {

    func visibleViewController() -> UIViewController? {
        if let rootViewController: UIViewController = self.rootViewController {
            return UIWindow.getVisibleViewControllerFrom(vc: rootViewController)
        }
        return nil
    }

    static func getVisibleViewControllerFrom(vc:UIViewController) -> UIViewController {
        if let navigationController = vc as? UINavigationController,
            let visibleController = navigationController.visibleViewController  {
            return UIWindow.getVisibleViewControllerFrom( vc: visibleController )
        } else if let tabBarController = vc as? UITabBarController,
            let selectedTabController = tabBarController.selectedViewController {
            return UIWindow.getVisibleViewControllerFrom(vc: selectedTabController )
        } else {
            if let presentedViewController = vc.presentedViewController {
                return UIWindow.getVisibleViewControllerFrom(vc: presentedViewController)
            } else {
                return vc
            }
        }
    }
}

用法:

if let topController = window.visibleViewController() {
    println(topController)
}

基于Dianz的答案，Objective-C版本

- (UIViewController *) topViewController {
   UIViewController *baseVC = UIApplication.sharedApplication.keyWindow.rootViewController;
   if ([baseVC isKindOfClass:[UINavigationController class]]) {
       return ((UINavigationController *)baseVC).visibleViewController;
   }

   if ([baseVC isKindOfClass:[UITabBarController class]]) {
       UIViewController *selectedTVC = ((UITabBarController*)baseVC).selectedViewController;
       if (selectedTVC) {
           return selectedTVC;
       }
   }

   if (baseVC.presentedViewController) {
       return baseVC.presentedViewController;
   }
   return baseVC;
}

对于任何寻求快速5/iOS 13+解决方案的人(keywindow自iOS 13以来已弃用)

extension UIApplication {

    class func getTopMostViewController() -> UIViewController? {
        let keyWindow = UIApplication.shared.windows.filter {$0.isKeyWindow}.first
        if var topController = keyWindow?.rootViewController {
            while let presentedViewController = topController.presentedViewController {
                topController = presentedViewController
            }
            return topController
        } else {
            return nil
        }
    }
}

在SWIFT 5.2中

你可以使用下面的代码:

import UIKit

extension UIWindow {
    static func getTopViewController() -> UIViewController? {
        if #available(iOS 13, *){
            let keyWindow = UIApplication.shared.windows.filter {$0.isKeyWindow}.first
            
            if var topController = keyWindow?.rootViewController {
                while let presentedViewController = topController.presentedViewController {
                    topController = presentedViewController
                }
                return topController
            }
        } else {
            if var topController = UIApplication.shared.keyWindow?.rootViewController {
                while let presentedViewController = topController.presentedViewController {
                    topController = presentedViewController
                }
                return topController
            }
        }
        return nil
    }
}

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
}

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
}
