Question

I want to add 4 buttons that will appears all the time in the user screen. I tried to add them above the AR view but it didn't work

Answer 1

You can simply add four buttons from object library on an ARSCNView . It's as simple as adding buttons to a UIView just drag and drop and connect IBActions and IBOutlets as per the requirement. For example

Then just add IBAction to the ViewController file and it will definitely work.

@IBAction func add(_ sender: Any) {
    // do your stuff
 }
 @IBAction func reset(_ sender: Any) {
    // do your stuff
 }

You have to use overlaySKScene attribute of the scene, which is an SKScene. overlaySKScene is an attribute of the scnView. Check the doc here and this answer
