Swift ios is it possible to swipe between images using UIImageView

First off, I am new to swift / ios.

In my viewcontroller I have a UIImageView, in that I load in an URL form an extrenal API in order to show an image.

What I want to do now is to to be able to swipe between image(s), so I dont want a pageviewcontroller.

Is this possible to do with a UIImageView? If so please share any example / github library, it would help alot.

Thanks in advance,

No, you can't really swipe between images using an image view. You could, however, put an image view inside another view and swipe/pan to slide between images. That is a fair amount of work to implement.

You should not be so quick to reject UIPageViewController. It has a slide style as an alternative to the page curl style. It handles what you want to do beautifully. Setting up a page view controller is a lot like setting up a table view or a collection view.

Do a search in the Xcode help system on "PhotoScroller". That will point you to a demo app that provides a UI for scrolling through a series of images. It handles tiling of large images so it's more than you need, but it serves as an example of the UI I think you are after.
