Swift if let statement results in <<error type>> instead of custom object

I'm trying to use if let Swift statement to use an optional if it's not equal to nil. But for some reason, when I use it, Xcode shows the object is `<>z

I have a function which returns MyObject? and I want to check if it is nil, and if it's not I want to use it.

I'm trying to do it like this:

if let anObject = self.myFunc() {
   anObject //Xcode shows that anObject is not MyObject but <<error type>>
}

(I'm using SwiftUI if that matters)

Does anyone knows why?

The if let is not allowed within body as is, so if you just need to conditionally shown some view on result of function, then the solution will be

if self.myFunc() != nil {
  // some view here
}
