How to add a TextField to Alert in SwiftUI?

Question

Anyone an idea how to create an Alert in SwiftUI that contains a TextField?

Answer 1

Alert is quite limited at the moment, but you can roll your own solution in pure SwiftUI.

Here's a simple implementation of a custom alert with a text field.

struct TextFieldAlert<Presenting>: View where Presenting: View {

    @Binding var isShowing: Bool
    @Binding var text: String
    let presenting: Presenting
    let title: String

    var body: some View {
        GeometryReader { (deviceSize: GeometryProxy) in
            ZStack {
                self.presenting
                    .disabled(isShowing)
                VStack {
                    Text(self.title)
                    TextField(self.title, text: self.$text)
                    Divider()
                    HStack {
                        Button(action: {
                            withAnimation {
                                self.isShowing.toggle()
                            }
                        }) {
                            Text("Dismiss")
                        }
                    }
                }
                .padding()
                .background(Color.white)
                .frame(
                    width: deviceSize.size.width*0.7,
                    height: deviceSize.size.height*0.7
                )
                .shadow(radius: 1)
                .opacity(self.isShowing ? 1 : 0)
            }
        }
    }

}

And a View extension to use it:

extension View {

    func textFieldAlert(isShowing: Binding<Bool>,
                        text: Binding<String>,
                        title: String) -> some View {
        TextFieldAlert(isShowing: isShowing,
                       text: text,
                       presenting: self,
                       title: title)
    }

}

---

Demo:

struct ContentView : View {

    @State private var isShowingAlert = false
    @State private var alertInput = ""

    var body: some View {
        NavigationView {
            VStack {
                Button(action: {
                    withAnimation {
                        self.isShowingAlert.toggle()
                    }
                }) {
                    Text("Show alert")
                }
            }
            .navigationBarTitle(Text("A List"), displayMode: .large)
        }
        .textFieldAlert(isShowing: $isShowingAlert, text: $alertInput, title: "Alert!")
    }
}

Answer 2

As the Alert view provided by SwiftUI doesn't do the job you will need indeed to use UIAlertController from UIKit. Ideally we want a TextFieldAlert view that we can presented in the same way we would present the Alert provided by SwiftUI:

struct MyView: View {

  @Binding var alertIsPresented: Bool
  @Binding var text: String? // this is updated as the user types in the text field

  var body: some View {
    Text("My Demo View")
      .textFieldAlert(isPresented: $alertIsPresented) { () -> TextFieldAlert in
        TextFieldAlert(title: "Alert Title", message: "Alert Message", text: self.$text)
    }
  }
}

We can achieve this writing a couple of classes and adding a modifier in a View extension.

1) TextFieldAlertViewController creates a UIAlertController (with a text field of course) and presents it when it appears on screen. User changes to the text field are reflected into a Binding<String> that is passed during initializazion.

class TextFieldAlertViewController: UIViewController {

  /// Presents a UIAlertController (alert style) with a UITextField and a `Done` button
  /// - Parameters:
  ///   - title: to be used as title of the UIAlertController
  ///   - message: to be used as optional message of the UIAlertController
  ///   - text: binding for the text typed into the UITextField
  ///   - isPresented: binding to be set to false when the alert is dismissed (`Done` button tapped)
  init(title: String, message: String?, text: Binding<String?>, isPresented: Binding<Bool>?) {
    self.alertTitle = title
    self.message = message
    self._text = text
    self.isPresented = isPresented
    super.init(nibName: nil, bundle: nil)
  }

  required init?(coder: NSCoder) {
    fatalError("init(coder:) has not been implemented")
  }

  // MARK: - Dependencies
  private let alertTitle: String
  private let message: String?
  @Binding private var text: String?
  private var isPresented: Binding<Bool>?

  // MARK: - Private Properties
  private var subscription: AnyCancellable?

  // MARK: - Lifecycle
  override func viewDidAppear(_ animated: Bool) {
    super.viewDidAppear(animated)
    presentAlertController()
  }

  private func presentAlertController() {
    guard subscription == nil else { return } // present only once

    let vc = UIAlertController(title: alertTitle, message: message, preferredStyle: .alert)

    // add a textField and create a subscription to update the `text` binding
    vc.addTextField { [weak self] textField in
      guard let self = self else { return }
      self.subscription = NotificationCenter.default
        .publisher(for: UITextField.textDidChangeNotification, object: textField)
        .map { ($0.object as? UITextField)?.text }
        .assign(to: \.text, on: self)
    }

    // create a `Done` action that updates the `isPresented` binding when tapped
    // this is just for Demo only but we should really inject
    // an array of buttons (with their title, style and tap handler)
    let action = UIAlertAction(title: "Done", style: .default) { [weak self] _ in
      self?.isPresented?.wrappedValue = false
    }
    vc.addAction(action)
    present(vc, animated: true, completion: nil)
  }
}

2) TextFieldAlert wraps TextFieldAlertViewController using the UIViewControllerRepresentable protocol so that it can be used within SwiftUI.

struct TextFieldAlert {

  // MARK: Properties
  let title: String
  let message: String?
  @Binding var text: String?
  var isPresented: Binding<Bool>? = nil

  // MARK: Modifiers
  func dismissable(_ isPresented: Binding<Bool>) -> TextFieldAlert {
    TextFieldAlert(title: title, message: message, text: $text, isPresented: isPresented)
  }
}

extension TextFieldAlert: UIViewControllerRepresentable {

  typealias UIViewControllerType = TextFieldAlertViewController

  func makeUIViewController(context: UIViewControllerRepresentableContext<TextFieldAlert>) -> UIViewControllerType {
    TextFieldAlertViewController(title: title, message: message, text: $text, isPresented: isPresented)
  }

  func updateUIViewController(_ uiViewController: UIViewControllerType,
                              context: UIViewControllerRepresentableContext<TextFieldAlert>) {
    // no update needed
  }
}

3) TextFieldWrapper is a simple ZStack with a TextFieldAlert on the back (only if isPresented is true) and a presenting view on the front. The presenting view is the only one visibile.

struct TextFieldWrapper<PresentingView: View>: View {

  @Binding var isPresented: Bool
  let presentingView: PresentingView
  let content: () -> TextFieldAlert

  var body: some View {
    ZStack {
      if (isPresented) { content().dismissable($isPresented) }
      presentingView
    }
  }  
}

4) The textFieldAlert modifier allows us to smoothly wrap any SwiftUI view in a TextFieldWrapper and obtain the desired behaviour.

extension View {
  func textFieldAlert(isPresented: Binding<Bool>,
                      content: @escaping () -> TextFieldAlert) -> some View {
    TextFieldWrapper(isPresented: isPresented,
                     presentingView: self,
                     content: content)
  }
}

iOS 16+

struct ContentView: View {
    @State private var presentAlert = false
    @State private var username: String = ""
    @State private var password: String = ""
    
    var body: some View {
        Button("Show Alert") {
            presentAlert = true            
        }
        .alert("Login", isPresented: $presentAlert, actions: {
            TextField("Username", text: $username)

            SecureField("Password", text: $password)

            
            Button("Login", action: {})
            Button("Cancel", role: .cancel, action: {})
        }, message: {
            Text("Please enter your username and password.")
        })
    }
}

Answer 4

You can simply use UIAlertController directly. No need to roll your own alert dialog UI:

private func alert() {
    let alert = UIAlertController(title: "title", message: "message", preferredStyle: .alert)
    alert.addTextField() { textField in
        textField.placeholder = "Enter some text"
    }
    alert.addAction(UIAlertAction(title: "Cancel", style: .cancel) { _ in })
    showAlert(alert: alert)
}

func showAlert(alert: UIAlertController) {
    if let controller = topMostViewController() {
        controller.present(alert, animated: true)
    }
}

private func keyWindow() -> UIWindow? {
    return UIApplication.shared.connectedScenes
    .filter {$0.activationState == .foregroundActive}
    .compactMap {$0 as? UIWindowScene}
    .first?.windows.filter {$0.isKeyWindow}.first
}

private func topMostViewController() -> UIViewController? {
    guard let rootController = keyWindow()?.rootViewController else {
        return nil
    }
    return topMostViewController(for: rootController)
}

private func topMostViewController(for controller: UIViewController) -> UIViewController {
    if let presentedController = controller.presentedViewController {
        return topMostViewController(for: presentedController)
    } else if let navigationController = controller as? UINavigationController {
        guard let topController = navigationController.topViewController else {
            return navigationController
        }
        return topMostViewController(for: topController)
    } else if let tabController = controller as? UITabBarController {
        guard let topController = tabController.selectedViewController else {
            return tabController
        }
        return topMostViewController(for: topController)
    }
    return controller
}

Most of this code is just boilerplate to find the ViewController that should present the alert. Call alert() e.g. from the action of a button:

struct TestView: View {
    var body: some View {
        Button(action: { alert() }) { Text("click me") }
     }
}

Please beware though that there seems to be a bug in beta 5 and onward that can sometimes cause the emulator to freeze once a text field is shown: Xcode 11 beta 5: UI freezes when adding textFields into UIAlertController

Answer 5

I found modals and alerts in SwiftUI to be lacking several features. For instance, there doesn't seem to be a way of presenting a modal with FormSheet style.

When I need to present a complex alert (such as one with textfields), I create a pure SwiftUI view with all the content of the alert, and then present it as a FormSheet using a UIHostController.

If you do not have a UIViewController around to call present(), you can always use the root view controller.

With this approach you get some nice features, such as the standard alert animation both going in, and out. You can also drag the alert down to dismiss it.

The alert view also moves up when the keyboard appears.

This works nicely on iPad. On iPhone, FormSheet is full screen so you may need to tweak the code to find a solution. I think this will give you a good starting point.

It is something like this:

struct ContentView : View {
    @State private var showAlert = false

    var body: some View {
        VStack {
            Button(action: {
                let alertHC = UIHostingController(rootView: MyAlert())

                alertHC.preferredContentSize = CGSize(width: 300, height: 200)
                alertHC.modalPresentationStyle = UIModalPresentationStyle.formSheet

                UIApplication.shared.windows[0].rootViewController?.present(alertHC, animated: true)

            }) {
                Text("Show Alert")
            }
        }
    }
}

struct MyAlert: View {
    @State private var text: String = ""

    var body: some View {

        VStack {
            Text("Enter Input").font(.headline).padding()

            TextField($text, placeholder: Text("Type text here")).textFieldStyle(.roundedBorder).padding()
            Divider()
            HStack {
                Spacer()
                Button(action: {
                    UIApplication.shared.windows[0].rootViewController?.dismiss(animated: true, completion: {})
                }) {

                    Text("Done")
                }
                Spacer()

                Divider()

                Spacer()
                Button(action: {
                    UIApplication.shared.windows[0].rootViewController?.dismiss(animated: true, completion: {})
                }) {
                    Text("Cancel")
                }
                Spacer()
            }.padding(0)


            }.background(Color(white: 0.9))
    }
}

If you find yourself using this a lot, the button row may be encapsulated in a separate view for easy reuse.

Answer 6

Simple native solution for iOS

extension View {

    public func textFieldAlert(
        isPresented: Binding<Bool>,
        title: String,
        text: String = "",
        placeholder: String = "",
        action: @escaping (String?) -> Void
    ) -> some View {
        self.modifier(TextFieldAlertModifier(isPresented: isPresented, title: title, text: text, placeholder: placeholder, action: action))
    }
    
}

public struct TextFieldAlertModifier: ViewModifier {

    @State private var alertController: UIAlertController?

    @Binding var isPresented: Bool

    let title: String
    let text: String
    let placeholder: String
    let action: (String?) -> Void

    public func body(content: Content) -> some View {
        content.onChange(of: isPresented) { isPresented in
            if isPresented, alertController == nil {
                let alertController = makeAlertController()
                self.alertController = alertController
                guard let scene = UIApplication.shared.connectedScenes.first as? UIWindowScene else {
                    return
                }
                scene.windows.first?.rootViewController?.present(alertController, animated: true)
            } else if !isPresented, let alertController = alertController {
                alertController.dismiss(animated: true)
                self.alertController = nil
            }
        }
    }

    private func makeAlertController() -> UIAlertController {
        let controller = UIAlertController(title: title, message: nil, preferredStyle: .alert)
        controller.addTextField {
            $0.placeholder = self.placeholder
            $0.text = self.text
        }
        controller.addAction(UIAlertAction(title: "Cancel", style: .cancel) { _ in
            self.action(nil)
            shutdown()
        })
        controller.addAction(UIAlertAction(title: "OK", style: .default) { _ in
            self.action(controller.textFields?.first?.text)
            shutdown()
        })
        return controller
    }

    private func shutdown() {
        isPresented = false
        alertController = nil
    }

}

Usage:

struct ContentView: View {

    @State private var isRenameAlertPresented = false
    @State private var title = "Old title"

    var body: some View {
        VStack {
            Button("Rename title") {
                isRenameAlertPresented = true
            }

            Text(title)
        }
        .textFieldAlert(
            isPresented: $isRenameAlertPresented,
            title: "Rename",
            text: "Title",
            placeholder: "",
            action: { newText in
                title = newText ?? ""
            }
        )
    }
}

Answer 7

Although not exactly the same, if all you're looking for is a native, modal-like view with an edit box, you could use a popover. It works out of the box (minus a sizing bug) without needing to traverse the view hierarchy.

Answer 8

As already was mentioned Alert is provide not many functionality and so almost useless in any non-standard cases when using in SwiftUI.

I ended up with a bit extensive solution - View that may behave as alert with high customisation level.

1. Create ViewModel for popUp:

   struct UniAlertViewModel {
   
    let backgroundColor: Color = Color.gray.opacity(0.4)
    let contentBackgroundColor: Color = Color.white.opacity(0.8)
    let contentPadding: CGFloat = 16
    let contentCornerRadius: CGFloat = 12
   }
   

2. we also need to configure buttons, for this purpose let's add one more type:

   struct UniAlertButton {
   
    enum Variant {
   
        case destructive
        case regular
    }
   
    let content: AnyView
    let action: () -> Void
    let type: Variant
   
    var isDestructive: Bool {
        type == .destructive
    }
   
    static func destructive<Content: View>(
        @ViewBuilder content: @escaping () -> Content
    ) -> UniAlertButton {
        UniAlertButton(
            content: content,
            action: { /* close */ },
            type: .destructive)
    }
   
    static func regular<Content: View>(
        @ViewBuilder content: @escaping () -> Content,
        action: @escaping () -> Void
    ) -> UniAlertButton {
        UniAlertButton(
            content: content,
            action: action,
            type: .regular)
    }
   
    private init<Content: View>(
        @ViewBuilder content: @escaping () -> Content,
        action: @escaping () -> Void,
        type: Variant
    ) {
        self.content = AnyView(content())
        self.type = type
        self.action = action
    }
   }
   

3. add View that can become our customizable popUp:

   struct UniAlert<Presenter, Content>: View where Presenter: View, Content: View {
   
    @Binding private (set) var isShowing: Bool
   
    let displayContent: Content
    let buttons: [UniAlertButton]
    let presentationView: Presenter
    let viewModel: UniAlertViewModel
   
    private var requireHorizontalPositioning: Bool {
        let maxButtonPositionedHorizontally = 2
        return buttons.count > maxButtonPositionedHorizontally
    }
   
    var body: some View {
        GeometryReader { geometry in
            ZStack {
                backgroundColor()
   
                VStack {
                    Spacer()
   
                    ZStack {
                        presentationView.disabled(isShowing)
                        let expectedWidth = geometry.size.width * 0.7
   
                        VStack {
                            displayContent
                            buttonsPad(expectedWidth)
                        }
                        .padding(viewModel.contentPadding)
                        .background(viewModel.contentBackgroundColor)
                        .cornerRadius(viewModel.contentCornerRadius)
                        .shadow(radius: 1)
                        .opacity(self.isShowing ? 1 : 0)
                        .frame(
                            minWidth: expectedWidth,
                            maxWidth: expectedWidth
                        )
                    }
   
                    Spacer()
                }
            }
        }
    }
   
    private func backgroundColor() -> some View {
        viewModel.backgroundColor
            .edgesIgnoringSafeArea(.all)
            .opacity(self.isShowing ? 1 : 0)
    }
   
    private func buttonsPad(_ expectedWidth: CGFloat) -> some View {
        VStack {
            if requireHorizontalPositioning {
                verticalButtonPad()
            } else {
                Divider().padding([.leading, .trailing], -viewModel.contentPadding)
                horizontalButtonsPadFor(expectedWidth)
            }
        }
    }
   
    private func verticalButtonPad() -> some View {
        VStack {

                let current = buttons[$0]
   
                Button(action: {
                    if !current.isDestructive {
                        current.action()
                    }
   
                    withAnimation {
                        self.isShowing.toggle()
                    }
                }, label: {
                    current.content.frame(height: 35)

            let maxHorizontalWidth = requireHorizontalPositioning ?
                expectedWidth - sidesOffset :
                expectedWidth / 2 - sidesOffset
   
            Spacer()
   
            if !requireHorizontalPositioning {
                ForEach(0..<buttons.count) {
                    if $0 != 0 {
                        Divider().frame(height: 44)
                    }
                    let current = buttons[$0]
   
                    Button(action: {
                        if !current.isDestructive {
                            current.action()
                        }
   
                        withAnimation {
                            self.isShowing.toggle()
                        }
                    }, label: {
                        current.content
                    })
                    .frame(maxWidth: maxHorizontalWidth, minHeight: 44)
                }
            }
            Spacer()
        }
    }
   }
   

4. to simplify usage let's add extension to View:

   extension View {
   
    func assemblyAlert<Content>(
        isShowing: Binding<Bool>,
        viewModel: UniAlertViewModel,
        @ViewBuilder content: @escaping () -> Content,
        actions: [UniAlertButton]
    ) -> some View where Content: View {
        UniAlert(
            isShowing: isShowing,
            displayContent: content(),
            buttons: actions,
            presentationView: self,
            viewModel: viewModel)
    }
   }
   

And usage:

struct ContentView: View {
    
    @State private var isShowingAlert: Bool = false
    @State private var text: String = ""
    
    var body: some View {
        VStack {
            Button(action: {
                withAnimation {
                    isShowingAlert.toggle()
                }
            }, label: {
                Text("Show alert")
            })
        }
        .assemblyAlert(isShowing: $isShowingAlert,
                       viewModel: UniAlertViewModel(),
                       content: {
                        Text("title")
                        Image(systemName: "phone")
                            .scaleEffect(3)
                            .frame(width: 100, height: 100)
                        TextField("enter text here", text: $text)
                        Text("description")
                       }, actions: buttons)
        }
   }
 }

Answer 9

This is an example based on the SwiftUI Sheet class that displays a dialog with a prompt, a text field, and the classic OK and Dismiss button

First lets make our Dialog class, which will pop when user want to edit a value:

import SwiftUI

struct Dialog: View {
    @Environment(\.presentationMode) var presentationMode

    /// Edited value, passed from outside
    @Binding var value: String?

    /// Prompt message
    var prompt: String = ""
    
    /// The value currently edited
    @State var fieldValue: String
    
    /// Init the Dialog view
    /// Passed @binding value is duplicated to @state value while editing
    init(prompt: String, value: Binding<String?>) {
        _value = value
        self.prompt = prompt
        _fieldValue = State<String>(initialValue: value.wrappedValue ?? "")
    }

    var body: some View {
        VStack {
            Text(prompt).padding()
            TextField("", text: $fieldValue)
            .frame(width: 200, alignment: .center)
            HStack {
            Button("OK") {
                self.value = fieldValue
                self.presentationMode.wrappedValue.dismiss()
            }
            Button("Dismiss") {
                self.presentationMode.wrappedValue.dismiss()
            }
            }.padding()
        }
        .padding()
    }
}

#if DEBUG
struct Dialog_Previews: PreviewProvider {

    static var previews: some View {
        var name = "John Doe"
        Dialog(prompt: "Name", value: Binding<String?>.init(get: { name }, set: {name = $0 ?? ""}))
    }
}
#endif

Now we use it this way in the caller View:

import SwiftUI

struct ContentView: View {
    /// Is the input dialog displayed
    @State var dialogDisplayed = false
    
    /// The name to edit
    @State var name: String? = nil
    
    var body: some View {
        VStack {
            Text(name ?? "Unnamed").frame(width: 200).padding()
            Button(name == nil ? "Set Name" : "Change Name") {
                dialogDisplayed = true
            }
            .sheet(isPresented: $dialogDisplayed) {
                Dialog(prompt: name == nil ? "Enter a name" : "Enter a new name", value: $name)
            }
            .onChange(of: name, perform: { value in
                print("Name Changed : \(value)")
            }
            .padding()
        }
        .padding()
    }
}

#if DEBUG
struct ContentView_Previews: PreviewProvider {
    static var previews: some View {
        ContentView()
    }
}
#endif

Step1: Make root view as ZStack

Step2: Add variable for show/hide

 @State var showAlert = false

Step 3: Add this custom layout inside root view (ZStack)

  if $showAlert.wrappedValue {
            ZStack() {
                Color.grayBackground
                VStack {
                    //your custom layout text fields buttons 
                   
                }.padding()
            }
            .frame(width: 300, height: 180,alignment: .center)
            .cornerRadius(20).shadow(radius: 20)
        }

Based on the idea of tanzolone

import Foundation
import Combine
import SwiftUI

class TextFieldAlertViewController: UIViewController {
    
    /// Presents a UIAlertController (alert style) with a UITextField and a `Done` button
    /// - Parameters:

    ///   - text: binding for the text typed into the UITextField
    ///   - isPresented: binding to be set to false when the alert is dismissed (`Done` button tapped)
    init(isPresented: Binding<Bool>, alert: TextFieldAlert) {
        self._isPresented = isPresented
        self.alert = alert
        super.init(nibName: nil, bundle: nil)

    private func presentAlertController() {
        guard subscription == nil else { return } // present only once
        
        let vc = UIAlertController(title: alert.title, message: alert.message, preferredStyle: .alert)
        // add a textField and create a subscription to update the `text` binding
        vc.addTextField {

    public var cancel: String? = "取消".localizedString // The optional cancel (right-most) button label
    public var action: (String?) -> Void // Triggers when either of the two buttons closes the dialog
    
}

struct AlertWrapper:  UIViewControllerRepresentable {

Answer 13

I created a swift package, swift-ui-accompanist that has a product AccompanistAlert that you can add to your project and use as below.

import AccompanistAlert
import SwiftUI

struct ContentView: View {
    @State var showingAddBookUI = false
    @State var newBookName = ""

    var body: some View {
        VStack {
            Button(action: { showingAddBookUI.toggle() }) {
                Image(systemName: "plus")
            }
        }
        .accompanist.alert("Add Book", isPresented: $showingAddBookUI) {
            TextField("Book Name", text: $newBookName)

            Button("Save", action: {
                // TODO: Save book to database
                newBookName = ""
            })
            .disabled(newBookName.count < 3)

            Button("Cancel", role: .cancel, action: {
                newBookName = ""
            })
        }
}

Notice that the Alert is constructed using the Swift UI DSL you are familiar with and the API is similar to that provided by Apple.

Answer 14

Great question I myself have struggled finding a good way of adding a textfield to my Alerts. And I think I have "solved" it - I found a quite simple way of doing it and I like it, and I hope you will too.

struct AlertContent: View {
@State private var showingSimpleAlert = false
@State private var userInput: String = ""
var body: some View {
    VStack {
        Button(action: {
            self.showingSimpleAlert = true
        }) {
            Text("Simple Alert")
        }
        .alert("Feedback", isPresented: $showingSimpleAlert) {
            TextField("Enter user input", text: $userInput)
            Button("SEND", action: sendUserInput)

        } message: {
            Text("Please give us feedback.")
        }
    }
}

func sendUserInput() {
    print("Sending user input")
}

}

And you will get the following result: Image of Alert with a text field

Answer 15

func dialog(){

       let alertController = UIAlertController(title: "Contry", message: "Write contrt code here", preferredStyle: .alert)

        alertController.addTextField { (textField : UITextField!) -> Void in
            textField.placeholder = "Country code"
        }

        let saveAction = UIAlertAction(title: "Save", style: .default, handler: { alert -> Void in

            let secondTextField = alertController.textFields![0] as UITextField
            print("county code : ",secondTextField)

        })

        let cancelAction = UIAlertAction(title: "Cancel", style: .default, handler: nil )


        alertController.addAction(saveAction)
        alertController.addAction(cancelAction)

        UIApplication.shared.windows.first?.rootViewController?.present(alertController, animated: true, completion: nil)


    }

Usage

Button(action: { self.dialog()})
 {
Text("Button")
.foregroundColor(.white).fontWeight(.bold)
 }
