Unfortunately, there isn't simply a little property you can set to align the border to the outside. It draws aligned to the inside because the UIViews default drawing operations draw within its bounds.
The simplest solution that comes to mind would be to expand the UIView by the size of the border width when applying the border:
Ok, there already is an accepted answer but I think there is a better way to do it, you just have to had a new layer a bit larger than your view and do not mask it to the bounds of the view's layer (which actually is the default behaviour). Here is the sample code :
Of course this is if you want your border to be 1 unity large, if you want more you adapt the borderWidth and the frame of the layer accordingly.
This is better than using a second view a bit larger as a CALayer is lighter than a UIView and you don't have do modify the frame of myView, which is good for instance if myView is aUIImageView
N.B : For me the result was not perfect on simulator (the layer was not exactly at the right position so the layer was thicker on one side sometimes) but was exactly what is asked for on real device.
EDIT
Actually the problem I talk about in the N.B was just because I had reduced the screen of the simulator, on normal size there is absolutely no issue
With the above accepted best answer i made experiences with such not nice results and unsightly edges:
So i will share my UIView Swift extension with you, that uses a UIBezierPath instead as border outline – without unsightly edges (inspired by @Fattie):
How I placed a border around my UI view (main - SubscriptionAd) in Storyboard is to place it inside another UI view (background - BackgroundAd). The Background UIView has a background colour that matches the border colour i want, and the Main UIView has constraints value 2 from each side.
I will link the background view to my ViewController and then turn the border on and off by changing the background colour.
