Type 'Notification.Name' (aka 'NSNotification.Name') has no member 'UIApplication'

First it said that

'UIApplicationDidEnterBackground' has been renamed to 'UIApplication.didEnterBackgroundNotification'

and when I dot it,it said

Type 'Notification.Name' (aka 'NSNotification.Name') has no member 'UIApplication'

func listenForBackgroundNotification() {
    observer = NotificationCenter.default.addObserver(forName: Notification.Name.UIApplicationDidEnterBackground, object: nil, queue: OperationQueue.main) { [weak self] _ in
        if let weakSelf = self {
            if weakSelf.presentedViewController != nil {
                weakSelf.dismiss(animated: true, completion: nil)
            }
            weakSelf.descriptionTextView.resignFirstResponder()

        }
    }
}

Xcode 11.4.1, Swift 5

Had the exact same issue. My problem was I didn't import UIKit in my custom class

import UIKit

Then I was able to implement the following:

name: UIApplication.didEnterBackgroundNotification

Error with Type 'NSNotification' has no member 'UIApplication' in swift4.2

NotificationCenter.default.addObserver(self, selector:#selector(handleNotification), name: NSNotification.Name.UIApplicationDidEnterBackground, object: nil)

Need to Change accordingly

NotificationCenter.default.addObserver(self, selector:#selector(handleNotification), name: UIApplication.didEnterBackgroundNotification, object: nil)
