How do I disable swipe animation when user directly tap on tab bar item?

In my project, I enable a coacopods called 'SwipeableTabBarController'. These allow my tab bar view controller detect pan gestures and switch between tabs. And I also write some code to detect swipe gesture, which allows users to hide the tab bar. Problem: My app will have a slide animation even when the user directly tap on the bar item. Any way to solve this? I appreciated any help!

Tried to disable swipe and pan gestures when a tap is detected. But the pan gestures are not in my gesture array.

Use isSwipeEnabled = false to disable the swipe feature. By default it is set to true in SwipeableTabBarController

UPDATE:

Since you are looking for a solution without the animation that SwipeableTabBarController library provides, but still want the swipe feature. Here is how you can do this with the default UITabBarController.

Step 1: Create a default UITabBarController and 2 View Controllers, lets call them ViewController_1 & ViewController_2

Step 2: Create a class for each ViewController and in the ViewDidLoad() method of both ViewController_1 & ViewController_2 add these lines.

override func viewDidLoad() {
    super.viewDidLoad()

    let swipeRight = UISwipeGestureRecognizer(target: self, action:  #selector(swiped))
    swipeRight.direction = UISwipeGestureRecognizer.Direction.right
    self.view.addGestureRecognizer(swipeRight)

    let swipeLeft = UISwipeGestureRecognizer(target: self, action: #selector(swiped))
    swipeLeft.direction = UISwipeGestureRecognizer.Direction.left
    self.view.addGestureRecognizer(swipeLeft)

}

And then add this function for every time a swipe is detected in both the classes.

@objc  func swiped(_ gesture: UISwipeGestureRecognizer) {
    if gesture.direction == .left {
        if (self.tabBarController?.selectedIndex)! < 2
        {
            self.tabBarController?.selectedIndex += 1
        }
    } else if gesture.direction == .right {
        if (self.tabBarController?.selectedIndex)! > 0 {
            self.tabBarController?.selectedIndex -= 1
        }
    }
}

This will give you the ability to swipe and navigate to different ViewControllers and also navigate using the Tabbar buttons.

Hope this helps.
