Features

• Based on UIVisualEffectView
• Supports iOS 14 and animation blocks
• Super safe and super easy

Usage

Just create a UIVisualEffectView in any way. Code, storyboards, XIBs, etc.

Customize it like example bellow via blur wrapper:

visualEffectView.blur.radius = 5.0
visualEffectView.blur.tintColor = .clear

Don't forget to set a tintColor value, otherwise it will be 30% white like UIBlurEffect.Style.Light by default.

Add the Blurberry pod to your Podfile:

platform :ios, '10.0'

target 'BlurryApp' do
  pod 'Blurberry' 
end
