Is it possible to load content to SFSafariViewController like it was in UIWebView with loadHTMLString: method? I tried to find anything about it, but it seems that SFSafariViewController can show only Internet data, is it true?

You can only load url in SFSafariViewController. It's an in-app Safari.

PFA Screenshot of safariServices framework

enter image description here

SFSafariViewController only support URLS and that of type http:// and https://

SFSafariViewController not support URL that are created from bundle or Document Directory resouces as they are starts with private:// or File://

So What you can do is

  1. Create local server in iOS app,
  2. Host that file on local server,
  3. and pass that url to SFSafariViewController.
