Size of view on device not the same as on storyboard in swift

A subview I have which is taking up the entire view width and defined on the storyboard has a different size at runtime. The size on the screen does not correlate to the size when myView.frame.size.width is called on the view in viewDidLoad(). How can I get this size?

viewDidLoad() does not lay out the views, they only get loaded, if you print out any subview's superview you will get nil. In viewDidLayoutSubviews() your view lays out the subviews with the correct size after AutoLayout.

I think that when the method viewDidLoad() is called, the views are loaded but not laid out. Maybe you should call myView.frame.size.width in viewWillAppear()
