How do you debug UIView? Are you using Debug View Hierarchy in XCode? I made the XRay library to help you debug UIView more conveniently link: https://github.com/ShawnBaek/XRay
4 projects | /r/swift | 29 May 2022

Never tried but I seen before https://github.com/willowtreeapps/Hyperion-iOS and https://github.com/isavynskyi/LayoutInspector. There is also one more that is very similar to revealapp that is free, but it felt a bit dodgy so I did not try it. I will edit this post if I can find it again. Other than revealapp there is also Sherlock app, which is very useful as well for simulator debugging.
