I am making a share function in my game and I have the code and it works fine on iPhone but when I test it on a iPad, when I tap the share button the app crashes. I am using the following code for the share button
let textToShare = "Check out this website!"
if let myWebsite = NSURL(string: "http://www.apple.com/") {
   let objectsToShare = [textToShare, myWebsite]
   let activityVC = UIActivityViewController(activityItems: objectsToShare, applicationActivities: nil)
   self.view?.window?.rootViewController?.presentViewController(activityVC, animated: true, completion: nil)
}
                The UIActivityViewController's has non-null popoverPresentationController property when running on iPad. So, try below.
if let wPPC = activityVC.popoverPresentationController {
    wPPC.sourceView = some view
    //  or
    wPPC.barButtonItem = some bar button item
}
presentViewController( activityVC, animated: true, completion: nil )
                        Building on @Satachito's answer: As the sourceView you can create an (invisible) CGRect at the place the popup should point to, and set the arrow in that direction:
let activityVC = UIActivityViewController(activityItems: objectsToShare, applicationActivities: nil)
if UIDevice.current.userInterfaceIdiom == .pad {
    activityVC.popoverPresentationController?.sourceView = UIApplication.shared.windows.first
    activityVC.popoverPresentationController?.sourceRect = CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: 300, height: 350)
    activityVC.popoverPresentationController?.permittedArrowDirections = [.left]
}
UIApplication.shared.windows.first?.rootViewController?.present(activityVC, animated: true, completion: nil)
