Scroll Position of UITextView at the top

I am using swift and want a UITextView to be at the top when the view launches. At the moment when I launch the app the UITextView is scrolled to the end. I have tried looking online and think scrollRangeToVisible might work but do not know how to use it in swift.

import UIKit

class ThirdViewController: UIViewController {

    @IBOutlet weak var FunFact: UITextView!

    override func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()

        FunFact.scrollRangeToVisible(0, 0)
        // Do any additional setup after loading the view.
    }
}

Try this:

var zeroOffset = CGPoint.zeroPoint
FunFact.contentOffset(zeroOffset)

This should bring the offset to 0 (the offset is an indication of how far the current position is from the initial one)

Add this to your ViewController:

    override func viewWillAppear(_ animated: Bool) {
        super.viewWillAppear(animated)
        textView.layoutIfNeeded()
        textView.contentOffset = CGPoint.zero
    }

This scrolls the UITextView to the top. Since it only knows its size, when it is layouted, "layoutIfNeeded" is needed after you changed the text (i changed it in viewDidLoad).
