Swift 以编程方式导航到另一个视图控制器/场景

You should push the new viewcontroller by using current navigation controller, not present.

self.navigationController.pushViewController(nextViewController, animated: true)

So If you present a view controller it will not show in navigation controller. It will just take complete screen. For this case you have to create another navigation controller and add your nextViewController as root for this and present this new navigationController.

Another way is to just push the view controller.

self.presentViewController(nextViewController, animated:true, completion:nil)

Swift 5

The default modal presentation style is a card. This shows the previous view controller at the top and allows the user to swipe away the presented view controller.

To retain the old style you need to modify the view controller you will be presenting like this:

newViewController.modalPresentationStyle = .fullScreen

This is the same for both programmatically created and storyboard created controllers.

Swift 3

With a programmatically created Controller

If you want to navigate to Controller created Programmatically, then do this:

let newViewController = NewViewController()
self.navigationController?.pushViewController(newViewController, animated: true)

With a StoryBoard created Controller

If you want to navigate to Controller on StoryBoard with Identifier "newViewController", then do this:

let storyBoard: UIStoryboard = UIStoryboard(name: "Main", bundle: nil)
let newViewController = storyBoard.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "newViewController") as! NewViewController
self.present(newViewController, animated: true, completion: nil)

OperationQueue.main.addOperation {
let storyBoard: UIStoryboard = UIStoryboard(name: "Main", bundle: nil)
let newViewController = storyBoard.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "Storyboard ID") as! NewViewController
self.present(newViewController, animated: true, completion: nil)
}

It worked for me when I put the code inside of the OperationQueue.main.addOperation, that will execute in the main thread for me.

According to @jaiswal Rajan in his answer. You can do a pushViewController like this:

let storyBoard: UIStoryboard = UIStoryboard(name: "NewBotStoryboard", bundle: nil)
let newViewController = storyBoard.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "NewViewController") as! NewViewController
self.navigationController?.pushViewController(newViewController, animated: true)

SWIFT 4.x

The Strings in double quotes always confuse me, so I think answer to this question needs some graphical presentation to clear this out.

For a banking app, I have a LoginViewController and a BalanceViewController. Each have their respective screens.

The app starts and shows the Login screen. When login is successful, app opens the Balance screen.

Here is how it looks:

The login success is handled like this:

let storyBoard: UIStoryboard = UIStoryboard(name: "Balance", bundle: nil)
let balanceViewController = storyBoard.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "balance") as! BalanceViewController
self.present(balanceViewController, animated: true, completion: nil)

As you can see, the storyboard ID 'balance' in small letters is what goes in the second line of the code, and this is the ID which is defined in the storyboard settings, as in the attached screenshot.

The term 'Balance' with capital 'B' is the name of the storyboard file, which is used in the first line of the code.

We know that using hard coded Strings in code is a very bad practice, but somehow in iOS development it has become a common practice, and Xcode doesn't even warn about them.

All other answers sounds good, I would like to cover my case, where I had to make an animated LaunchScreen, then after 3 to 4 seconds of animation the next task was to move to Home screen. I tried segues, but that created problem for destination view. So at the end I accessed AppDelegates's Window property and I assigned a new NavigationController screen to it,

let storyboard = UIStoryboard(name: "Main", bundle: nil)
let appDelegate = UIApplication.shared.delegate as! AppDelegate
let homeVC = storyboard.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "HomePageViewController") as! HomePageViewController


//Below's navigationController is useful if u want NavigationController in the destination View
let navigationController = UINavigationController(rootViewController: homeVC)
appDelegate.window!.rootViewController = navigationController

If incase, u don't want navigationController in the destination view then just assign as,

let storyboard = UIStoryboard(name: "Main", bundle: nil)
let appDelegate = UIApplication.shared.delegate as! AppDelegate
let homeVC = storyboard.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "HomePageViewController") as! HomePageViewController
appDelegate.window!.rootViewController = homeVC

The above code works well but if you want to navigate from an NSObject class, where you can not use self.present:

let storyBoard = UIStoryboard(name:"Main", bundle: nil)
if let conVC = storyBoard.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "SoundViewController") as? SoundViewController,
let navController = UIApplication.shared.keyWindow?.rootViewController as? UINavigationController {
    

navController.pushViewController(conVC, animated: true)
}
