        configuration.preferences = preferences
        let webView = WKWebView(frame: .zero, configuration: configuration)
        // Do any additional setup after loading the view, typically from a nib.

Did you try adding in viewDidload

webView.scrollView.minimumZoomScale = 1.0

webView.scrollView.maximumZoomScale = 1.0

I'm not sure, but you could try:

To dispable pinch gesture on the view, set

webView.scrollView.multipleTouchEnabled = false

and / or

add the UIScrollViewDelegate func

func viewForZooming(in scrollView: UIScrollView) -> UIView? {

return nil

}

Should set delegate for webView.scrollView to self.

try this

webView.scrollView.delegate = self

public func scrollViewWillBeginZooming(_ scrollView: UIScrollView, with view: UIView?) {
        scrollView.pinchGestureRecognizer?.isEnabled = false
    }

it'll disable zooming by pinch. I'm looking how to disable the double-tap for it.

You Have to maintain in delegate Method. First You Have to implicate this Delegate, UIScrollViewDelegate. Then only its work

@IBOutlet weak var webView: WKWebView!
override func viewDidLoad() {
  super.viewDidLoad()
  self.webView.scrollView.delegate = self
}
//MARK: - UIScrollViewDelegate
func scrollViewWillBeginZooming(_ scrollView: UIScrollView, with view: UIView?) {
  scrollView.pinchGestureRecognizer?.isEnabled = false
}

I Think It may Useful.

For anyone still having this issue you can fix it by adding some viewport constraints to the head of the html of the page you have loaded. I do this with some javascript I add to the end of the document:

Code Block  swift    lazy var webView: WKWebView = {
        let configuration = WKWebViewConfiguration()
        let source: String = "var meta = document.createElement('meta');" +
            "meta.name = 'viewport';" +
            "meta.content = 'width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0, maximum-scale=1.0, user-scalable=no';" +
            "var head = document.getElementsByTagName('head')[0];" +
            "head.appendChild(meta);"
        let script: WKUserScript = WKUserScript(source: source, injectionTime: .atDocumentEnd, forMainFrameOnly: true)
        configuration.userContentController.addUserScript(script)
        let webView = WKWebView(frame: .zero, configuration: configuration)
        webView.navigationDelegate = self
        return webView
    }()

Alternatively if you are loading in html yourself you can get the same result like this:

Code Block  swift webView.loadHTMLString("<html><head><meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0 maximum-scale=1.0 user-scalable=no\" charset=\"utf-8\" /></head><body>\(YOUR-HTML-CODE-HERE)</body></html>", baseURL: nil)

Hope this helps!
