Sensitive

Special way to work with gestures in iOS

From simplisticated·Updated March 15, 2026·View on GitHub·

`Sensitive` is a library that simplifies work with gestures in iOS. Forget about target/action pattern of primitive `UIGestureRecognizer`. With `Sensitive` you can call `onTap`, `onPinch`, `onSwipe` on any `UIView` instance and implement handler for the gesture. That's all that you should know to start. For details, see [Usage](#usage) section. The project is written primarily in Swift, distributed under the MIT License license, first published in 2015. Key topics include: gesture, gesture-recognizer, simplify, swift, uigesturerecognizer.

Usage

Adding Gesture Recognizers to View

All gestures are available via special variables that you can call on any UIView instance. Examples:

swift
view.onTap .configure(with: { (gestureRecognizer) in // Configure `UITapGestureRecognizer` instance gestureRecognizer.numberOfTapsRequired = 2 }) .handle { (gestureRecognizer) in // Handle tap on view gestureRecognizer.view!.backgroundColor = .green } view.onSwipe .configure(with: { (gestureRecognizer) in // Configure `UISwipeGestureRecognizer` instance gestureRecognizer.direction = .left }) .handle { (gestureRecognizer) in // Handle tap on view gestureRecognizer.view!.backgroundColor = .green }

Full list of available gestures:

  • onTap
  • onLongPress
  • onPan
  • onPinch
  • onRotation
  • onSwipe
  • onScreenEdgePan

Simultaneous Recognition

If you need few gestures to work together on the same view, you can also use recognizeSimultaneously method:

swift
view.onTap .handle { (gestureRecognizer) in // Your implementation here... } .recognizeSimultaneously(true) view.onPinch .handle { (gestureRecognizer) in // Your implementation here... } .recognizeSimultaneously(true)
