How to return UISearchController under a title on an iPad with iOS 16?


On iPad with iOS 16 searchController displaying on the right side. Like this: Browser style

How can I return the searchController's "default" view? Like this: UISearchController under title


Solution

  • In iOS 16, there is a new property preferredSearchBarPlacement for the navigationItem, you can change it to .stacked to make it appear like previous iOS:

    if #available(iOS 16.0, *) {
      navigationItem.preferredSearchBarPlacement = .stacked
    }
