Get Progress of UIWebView

Question

Is there a way to get the percentage of the page loaded from a UIWebViewin Swift with from a standard @IBOutlet?

@IBOutlet var webView: UIWebView!;

Answer 1

Not with a UIWebView, no; it isn't possible.

But, new in iOS 8, you can use WKWebView, which has an estimatedProgress property which you can observe using key-value observing and thus get updates as the progress of loading proceeds.
