How do I scroll the UIScrollView when the keyboard appears

Question

I m having trouble with my code  I m trying to move the UIScrollView when I m editing an UITextField that should be hidden by the keyboard pop   I m moving the main frame right now because I don t know how to  scroll up  in the code  So  I did a little bit of code  it s working fine but when I edit an UItextfield and I switch to another UITextField without pressing on the  return  button the main view goes waaayyyyy to far up   I did an NSLog   with my variables size  distance and textFieldRect origin y as you can see below  When I put two UITextField at the same place  y origin  and I do this particular  switch   wihtout pressing return    I get the same numbers  whereas my code worked fine for the first UITextField editing but not for the second editing   Check this out   -  void textFieldDidBeginEditing  UITextField   textField         int size      CGRect textFieldRect    self view window convertRect textField bounds fromView textField       size   textFieldRect origin y   textFieldRect size height      if  change    FALSE                size   size - distance            if  size  lt  PORTRAIT KEYBOARD HEIGHT                distance   0            else if  size  gt  PORTRAIT KEYBOARD HEIGHT                distance   size - PORTRAIT KEYBOARD HEIGHT   5      5 px for more visibility           NSLog   origin  f   textFieldRect origin y       NSLog   size  d   size       NSLog   distance  d   distance       CGRect viewFrame   self view frame      viewFrame origin y -  distance       UIView beginAnimations nil context NULL        UIView setAnimationBeginsFromCurrentState YES        UIView setAnimationDuration KEYBOARD ANIMATION DURATION        self view setFrame viewFrame        UIView commitAnimations       change   FALSE     -  void textFieldDidEndEditing  UITextField   textField       change   TRUE      CGRect viewFrame   self view frame      viewFrame origin y    distance       UIView beginAnimations nil context NULL        UIView setAnimationBeginsFromCurrentState YES        UIView setAnimationDuration KEYBOARD ANIMATION DURATION        self view setFrame viewFrame        UIView commitAnimations       Any ideas

Use following extension if you don t want to calculate too much   func scrollSubviewToBeVisible subview  UIView  animated  Bool        let visibleFrame   UIEdgeInsetsInsetRect self bounds  self contentInset      let subviewFrame   subview convertRect subview bounds  toView  self      if   CGRectContainsRect visibleFrame  subviewFrame             self scrollRectToVisible subviewFrame  animated  animated            And maybe you want keep your UITextField always visible   func textViewDidChange textView  UITextView        self scrollView  scrollSubviewToBeVisible textView  animated  false

The recommended way from Apple is to change the contentInset of the UIScrollView  It is a very elegant solution  because you do not have to mess with the contentSize   Following code is copied from the Keyboard Programming Guide  where the handling of this issue is explained  You should have a look into it      Call this method somewhere in your view controller setup code  -  void registerForKeyboardNotifications         NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter  addObserver self             selector  selector keyboardWasShown               name UIKeyboardDidShowNotification object nil        NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter  addObserver self              selector  selector keyboardWillBeHidden                name UIKeyboardWillHideNotification object nil         Called when the UIKeyboardDidShowNotification is sent  -  void keyboardWasShown  NSNotification  aNotification       NSDictionary  info    aNotification userInfo       CGSize kbSize     info objectForKey UIKeyboardFrameBeginUserInfoKey  CGRectValue  size      UIEdgeInsets contentInsets   UIEdgeInsetsMake 0 0  0 0  kbSize height  0 0       scrollView contentInset   contentInsets      scrollView scrollIndicatorInsets   contentInsets          If active text field is hidden by keyboard  scroll it so it s visible        Your application might not need or want this behavior      CGRect aRect   self view frame      aRect size height -  kbSize height      if   CGRectContainsPoint aRect  activeField frame origin              CGPoint scrollPoint   CGPointMake 0 0  activeField frame origin y-kbSize height            scrollView setContentOffset scrollPoint animated YES               Called when the UIKeyboardWillHideNotification is sent     -  void keyboardWillBeHidden  NSNotification  aNotification       UIEdgeInsets contentInsets   UIEdgeInsetsZero      scrollView contentInset   contentInsets      scrollView scrollIndicatorInsets   contentInsets      Swift version   func registerForKeyboardNotifications         NotificationCenter default addObserver self  selector   selector onKeyboardAppear       name  NSNotification Name UIKeyboardDidShow  object  nil      NotificationCenter default addObserver self  selector   selector onKeyboardDisappear       name  NSNotification Name UIKeyboardDidHide  object  nil        Don t forget to unregister when done deinit       NotificationCenter default removeObserver self  name  NSNotification Name UIKeyboardDidShow  object  nil      NotificationCenter default removeObserver self  name  NSNotification Name UIKeyboardDidHide  object  nil      objc func onKeyboardAppear   notification  NSNotification        let info   notification userInfo      let rect  CGRect   info UIKeyboardFrameBeginUserInfoKey  as  CGRect     let kbSize   rect size      let insets   UIEdgeInsetsMake 0  0  kbSize height  0      scrollView contentInset   insets     scrollView scrollIndicatorInsets   insets         If active text field is hidden by keyboard  scroll it so it s visible        Your application might not need or want this behavior      var aRect   self view frame      aRect size height -  kbSize height       let activeField  UITextField     addressTextView  servicePathTextView  usernameTextView  passwordTextView  first    0 isFirstResponder       if let activeField   activeField           if  aRect contains activeField frame origin                let scrollPoint   CGPoint x  0  y  activeField frame origin y-kbSize height              scrollView setContentOffset scrollPoint  animated  true                      objc func onKeyboardDisappear   notification  NSNotification        scrollView contentInset   UIEdgeInsets zero     scrollView scrollIndicatorInsets   UIEdgeInsets zero

You can scroll by using the property contentOffset in UIScrollView  e g    CGPoint offset   scrollview contentOffset  offset y -  KEYBOARD HEIGHT   5  scrollview contentOffset   offset    There s also a method to do animated scrolling   As for the reason why your second edit is not scrolling correctly  it could be because you seem to assume that a new keyboard will appear every time editing starts  You could try checking if you ve already adjusted for the  keyboard  visible position  and likewise check for keyboard visibility at the moment before reverting it    A better solution might be to listen for the keyboard notification  e g      NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter  addObserver self                                          selector  selector keyboardDidShow                                                name UIKeyboardDidShowNotification                                            object nil     NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter  addObserver self                                          selector  selector keyboardWillHide                                                name UIKeyboardWillHideNotification                                            object nil

The only thing I would update in Apple code is the keyboardWillBeHidden  method  to provide smooth transition      Called when the UIKeyboardWillHideNotification is sent -  void keyboardWillBeHidden  NSNotification  aNotification       UIEdgeInsets contentInsets   UIEdgeInsetsZero        UIView animateWithDuration 0 4 animations            self scrollView contentInset   contentInsets              self scrollView scrollIndicatorInsets   contentInsets

You actually don t need a UIScrollView to do this  I used this code and it works for me   - BOOL textFieldShouldBeginEditing  UITextField   textField       if  textField   myTextField              self keyBoardAppeared           return true     - void textFieldDidEndEditing  UITextField   textField      if  textField   myTextField              self keyBoardDisappeared           - void  keyBoardAppeared      CGRect frame   self view frame    UIView animateWithDuration 0 3                       delay 0                     options  UIViewAnimationCurveEaseOut                  animations                         self view frame   CGRectMake frame origin x  frame origin y-215  frame size width  frame size height                                       completion   BOOL finished                            - void  keyBoardDisappeared      CGRect frame   self view frame      UIView animateWithDuration 0 3                       delay 0                     options  UIViewAnimationCurveEaseOut                  animations                         self view frame   CGRectMake frame origin x  frame origin y 215  frame size width  frame size height                                       completion   BOOL finished

My solution has 4 step  - Step 1  the function listens when the keyboard appears  -  void keyboardWasShown  NSNotification   notification      Get the size of the keyboard  CGSize keyboardSize      notification userInfo  objectForKey UIKeyboardFrameBeginUserInfoKey  CGRectValue  size    top  64 for navigation bar  0 for without navigation UIEdgeInsets contentInsets   UIEdgeInsetsMake 64  0  keyboardSize height  0    scrollView contentInset   contentInsets   scrollView scrollIndicatorInsets   contentInsets      - Step 2  the function listens when the keyboard disappears  -  void keyboardWillHide  NSNotification   notification     top  64 for navigatiob bar UIEdgeInsets contentInsets   UIEdgeInsetsMake 64  0  0  0     editScrollView setContentInset  contentInsets     editScrollView setScrollIndicatorInsets  contentInsets       - Step 3  add these functions to the notification center   -  void viewWillAppear  BOOL animated   super viewWillAppear animated     NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter  addObserver self selector  selector keyboardWasShown   name UIKeyboardDidShowNotification object nil     NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter  addObserver self selector  selector keyboardWillHide   name UIKeyboardWillHideNotification object nil       - Step 4  remove listen when view controller disappers  -  void viewDidDisappear  BOOL animated   super viewDidDisappear animated     NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter removeObserver self name UIKeyboardDidShowNotification object nil     NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter removeObserver self name UIKeyboardWillHideNotification object nil

I know it s an old question now but i thought it might help others  I wanted something a little easier to implement for a few apps i had  so i made a class for this  You can download it here if you want  https   github com sdernley iOSTextFieldHandler  It s as simple as setting all of the UITextFields to have a delegate of self   textfieldname delegate   self    And then adding this to your view controller with the name of your scrollView and submit button  -  void textFieldDidBeginEditing  UITextField   textField        iOSTextFieldHandler TextboxKeyboardMover containingScrollView tf textField btn btnSubmit

I ve found the above answers have been outdated  Also not perfect when scroll   Here s a swift version    It will scroll right below the textField  no spare space  And It will restore to the way it was like its first appear     add observer override func viewDidLoad         super viewDidLoad        NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter   addObserver self  selector   selector ARVHttpPlayVC keyboardDidShow       name  UIKeyboardDidShowNotification  object  nil      NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter   addObserver self  selector   selector ARVHttpPlayVC keyboardDidHide       name  UIKeyboardDidHideNotification  object  nil     func keyboardDidShow notification  NSNotification        let userInfo  NSDictionary   notification userInfo      let keyboardSize   userInfo objectForKey UIKeyboardFrameEndUserInfoKey   CGRectValue size     let difference   keyboardSize height -  self view frame height - inputTextField frame origin y - inputTextField frame size height      if difference  gt  0           var contentInset UIEdgeInsets   self scrollView contentInset         contentInset bottom   difference         self scrollView contentInset   contentInset          let scrollPoint   CGPointMake 0  difference          self scrollView setContentOffset scrollPoint  animated  true            func keyboardDidHide notification  NSNotification        let contentInset UIEdgeInsets   UIEdgeInsetsZero     self scrollView contentInset   contentInset      remove observer deinit       NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter   removeObserver self

For this stuff no need to lot s of coding it s very easy like below code -  your all textfiled in UIScrollview from nib like this image -    YourViewController h   interface cntrInquiryViewController   UIViewController lt UIScrollViewDelegate UITextFieldDelegate gt         IBOutlet UITextField  txtName       IBOutlet UITextField  txtEmail       IBOutlet UIScrollView  srcScrollView     end   connect IBOutlet from nib and also Connect each delegate of UItextfiled and scrollview delegate from NIB  - void viewWillAppear  BOOL animated       srcScrollView contentSize   CGSizeMake 320  500         super viewWillAppear YES       - void textFieldDidBeginEditing  FMTextField   textField        srcScrollView setContentOffset CGPointMake 0 textField center y-140  animated YES    you can set your  y cordinate as your req also    - BOOL textFieldShouldReturn  UITextField   textField         textField resignFirstResponder         srcScrollView setContentOffset CGPointMake 0 0  animated YES         return YES      NOTE if Text-filed delegate not connected then no one method working please insure that all iBOulate and delegate connected correctly

Swift 5 solution based on Masa solution above - changes in relation to it    using keyboardFrameEndUserInfoKey instead of keyboardFrameBeginUserInfoKey  because keyboardFrameBeginUserInfoKey can on first show return other value as described for example here  keyboard height varies when appearing using  will  instead of  did  notifications plus changing it to Swift 5 keys names  UIResponder keyboardWillShowNotification UIResponder keyboardWillHideNotification instead of NSNotification Name UIKeyboardDidShow NSNotification Name UIKeyboardDidHide   Code   override func viewDidLoad         super viewDidLoad       registerForKeyboardNotifications      func registerForKeyboardNotifications         NotificationCenter default addObserver self  selector   selector onKeyboardAppear       name  UIResponder keyboardWillShowNotification  object  nil      NotificationCenter default addObserver self  selector   selector onKeyboardDisappear       name  UIResponder keyboardWillHideNotification  object  nil      objc func onKeyboardAppear   notification  NSNotification        guard let info   notification userInfo  let kbSize    info UIResponder keyboardFrameEndUserInfoKey  as  NSValue   cgRectValue size else   return        let insets   UIEdgeInsets top  0  left  0  bottom  kbSize height  right  0       scrollView contentInset   insets     scrollView scrollIndicatorInsets   insets        Other changes if needed    deinit       NotificationCenter default removeObserver self

I would do that like this  It s a lot of code but it ensures  that the textField currently in focus is is vertically centered in the  available space    -  void viewWillAppear  BOOL animated        super viewWillAppear animated         NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter  addObserver self selector  selector keyboardWillShow   name UIKeyboardWillShowNotification object nil         NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter  addObserver self selector  selector keyboardWillHide   name UIKeyboardWillHideNotification object nil      -  void viewWillDisappear  BOOL animated        super viewWillDisappear animated         NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter  removeObserver self name UIKeyboardWillShowNotification object nil         NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter  removeObserver self name UIKeyboardWillHideNotification object nil      -  void keyboardWillShow  NSNotification   notification       NSDictionary  info    notification userInfo       NSValue  keyBoardEndFrame    info objectForKey UIKeyboardFrameEndUserInfoKey       CGSize keyboardSize    keyBoardEndFrame CGRectValue  size      self keyboardSize   keyboardSize        self adjustScrollViewOffsetToCenterTextField self currentTextField      -  void keyboardWillHide  NSNotification   notification       self keyboardSize   CGSizeZero     -  IBAction textFieldGotFocus  UITextField   sender       sender inputAccessoryView   self keyboardAccessoryView      self currentTextField   sender       self adjustScrollViewOffsetToCenterTextField sender          -  void adjustScrollViewOffsetToCenterTextField  UITextField   textField       CGRect textFieldFrame   textField frame      float keyboardHeight   MIN self keyboardSize width  self keyboardSize height        float visibleScrollViewHeight   self scrollView frame size height - keyboardHeight      float offsetInScrollViewCoords    visibleScrollViewHeight   2  -  textFieldFrame size height   2        float scrollViewOffset   textFieldFrame origin y - offsetInScrollViewCoords         UIView animateWithDuration  3 delay 0 options UIViewAnimationOptionBeginFromCurrentState animations            self scrollView contentOffset   CGPointMake self scrollView contentOffset x  scrollViewOffset        completion NULL       you ll need these two properties in your  interface     property  nonatomic  assign  CGSize keyboardSize   property  nonatomic  strong  UITextField  currentTextField    Note that the -  IBAction textFieldGotFocus  action is hooked up to the every textField s DidBeginEditing state   Also it would be a little better to get the animation duration from the keyboard notification and use that for the scrollview animation instead of a fixed value  but sue me  this was good enough for me

All the answers here seem to forget about landscape possibilities  If you would like this to work when the device is rotated to a landscape view  then you will face problems   The trick here is that although the view is aware of the orientation  the keyboard is not  This means in Landscape  the keyboards width is actually its height and visa versa   To modify Apples recommended way of changing the content insets and get it support landscape orientation  I would recommend using the following      Call this method somewhere in your view controller setup code  -  void registerForKeyboardNotifications         NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter  addObserver self             selector  selector keyboardWasShown               name UIKeyboardDidShowNotification object nil        NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter  addObserver self              selector  selector keyboardWillBeHidden                name UIKeyboardWillHideNotification object nil         Called when the UIKeyboardDidShowNotification is sent  -  void keyboardWasShown  NSNotification  aNotification       UIInterfaceOrientation orientation     UIApplication sharedApplication  statusBarOrientation       CGSize keyboardSize      notif userInfo  objectForKey UIKeyboardFrameBeginUserInfoKey  CGRectValue  size      if  orientation    UIDeviceOrientationLandscapeLeft    orientation    UIDeviceOrientationLandscapeRight             CGSize origKeySize   keyboardSize          keyboardSize height   origKeySize width          keyboardSize width   origKeySize height            UIEdgeInsets contentInsets   UIEdgeInsetsMake 0  0  keyboardSize height  0       scroller contentInset   contentInsets      scroller scrollIndicatorInsets   contentInsets          If active text field is hidden by keyboard  scroll it so it s visible        Your application might not need or want this behavior      CGRect rect   scroller frame      rect size height -  keyboardSize height      NSLog   Rect Size Height   f   rect size height        if   CGRectContainsPoint rect  activeField frame origin             CGPoint point   CGPointMake 0  activeField frame origin y - keyboardSize height           NSLog   Point Height   f   point y            scroller setContentOffset point animated YES               Called when the UIKeyboardWillHideNotification is sent     -  void keyboardWillBeHidden  NSNotification  aNotification       UIEdgeInsets contentInsets   UIEdgeInsetsZero      scrollView contentInset   contentInsets      scrollView scrollIndicatorInsets   contentInsets        The part to pay attention to here is the following   UIInterfaceOrientation orientation     UIApplication sharedApplication  statusBarOrientation   CGSize keyboardSize      notif userInfo  objectForKey UIKeyboardFrameBeginUserInfoKey  CGRectValue  size  if  orientation    UIDeviceOrientationLandscapeLeft    orientation    UIDeviceOrientationLandscapeRight         CGSize origKeySize   keyboardSize      keyboardSize height   origKeySize width      keyboardSize width   origKeySize height      What is does  is detects what orientation the device is in  If it is landscape  it will  swap  the width and height values of the keyboardSize variable to ensure that the correct values are being used in each orientation
