Answer 1

You need to pack the text inside another variable

textContent = textField.text
textField.text = ""

if you want to hide the content like password set

textField.isSecureTextEntry = true

//

var textContent = ""

func textFieldDidEndEditing(_ textField: UITextField) {

    textContent = textField.text!

    textField.text = ""
}

func textFieldDidBeginEditing(_ textField: UITextField) {

    textField.text = textContent

}

Take textfield text into a variable and make textfield empty.

var textFieldText = textfield.text
textField.text = ""
