PKHUD
PKHUD is a Swift interface library used to replicate native system heads-up displays and temporary visual notification overlays on iOS. It provides a framework for creating blurred visual alerts that float above the application interface to mirror the appearance and behavior of official system indicators.
The library enables the emulation of specific system UI elements, such as those used for volume and screen rotation. It supports real-time content updates to transition between different visual states, such as switching from a loading spinner to a success checkmark.
The toolkit manages overlay rendering through a top-level window layer and includes controls for background dimming and user interaction blocking. Visual elements are managed via configurable style parameters and scheduled timers for automatic dismissal.
Features
- System UI Emulations - Replicates native iOS system alerts and heads-up displays to maintain a consistent system aesthetic.
- iOS Blur Effect Libraries - Provides iOS-specific blur effect libraries for developing overlays with a native system aesthetic.
- System Alert Components - Provides a collection of reusable Swift components for rendering native-style system alerts and status indicators.
- HUD Components - Provides custom HUD components for temporary on-screen visual indicators with real-time content updates.
- System HUD Overrides - Replicates native system heads-up displays for volume and rotation on iOS.
- Custom Alert Overlays - Manages non-intrusive visual alert overlays that can dim the background or allow interaction with the underlying app.
- Blur Effects - Implements translucent background panels using system-level blur filters to separate notifications from the primary interface.
- Native View Overlays - Renders notifications on a top-level window layer to ensure visibility above all other application content.
- Notification Systems - Displays heads-up alerts and notifications that mimic official system styles, including blur effects and specific iconography.
- UI Overlay Frameworks - Provides a framework for creating temporary, blurred visual notifications that float above the application interface.
- Real-Time Visual Updates - Provides real-time visual updates to transition between different states, such as switching from a loading spinner to a success checkmark.
- Background Interaction Blocking - Intercepts touch events to prevent user input from reaching underlying views while a notification overlay is active.
- Automatic Dismissal Lifecycles - Uses scheduled delays to automatically remove visual notifications from the screen after a set duration.
- Progress HUDs - Toggles background dimming and controls whether underlying views remain interactive while a notification is visible.
- Custom View Rendering - Renders custom views within the notification overlay to display specialized information or graphics.
- Loading Indicators - Reimplementation of the native Apple HUD.
- Progress Indicators - Reimplementation of system HUDs.
- Progress Indicators - Swift implementation of native Apple-style HUDs.
