UITextfield set padding on left and right iOS swift

 Solution:

You can use the below extension function to set the padding for textfield in both right and left side.

extension UITextField {

    func setPadding() {

        self.setLeftPaddingPoints()

        self.setRightPaddingPoints()

    }

    func setLeftPaddingPoints(_ amount:CGFloat = 5){

        let paddingView = UIView(frame: CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: amount, height: self.frame.size.height))

        self.leftView = paddingView

        self.leftViewMode = .always

    }

    func setRightPaddingPoints(_ amount:CGFloat = 5) {

        let paddingView = UIView(frame: CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: amount, height: self.frame.size.height))

        self.rightView = paddingView

        self.rightViewMode = .always

    }

}
