SkeletonView is a Swift library for iOS that displays animated skeleton placeholder views while content loads, giving users a preview of upcoming UI. It works with any UIView including UITableView and UICollectionView, and supports customizable gradients, shimmer animations, and transitions.

Use cases

  • show skeleton loading placeholders in an iOS app
  • add shimmer animation while API data loads
  • display redacted placeholder views for UITableView
  • prepare users for incoming content with loading animations
  • replace spinners with skeleton screens in Swift
  • animate collection view placeholders during async requests

When to choose

  • building an iOS or iPadOS app in Swift that loads async content
  • you want customizable skeleton/shimmer loading states across any UIView
  • you need support for table and collection view placeholders

When to avoid

  • developing for Android, web, or cross-platform frameworks
  • your app uses SwiftUI exclusively and you prefer native redaction APIs
  • you only need a simple spinner without placeholder previews
