I added this to the collectionviewcell

override func preferredLayoutAttributesFitting(_ layoutAttributes: UICollectionViewLayoutAttributes) -> UICollectionViewLayoutAttributes {
       
        setNeedsLayout()
        layoutIfNeeded()
       
        let size = contentView.systemLayoutSizeFitting(layoutAttributes.size)
       
        var frame = layoutAttributes.frame
        frame.size.height = ceil(size.height)
        layoutAttributes.frame = frame
       
        return layoutAttributes
    }

The Cell is fitting perfectly now 😎

The cell width is computed automatically depending on spacing you have set.

The content inside has no impact (unless it is intended to force cell width ?).

Could you explain a bit more clearly:

- what you want

- what you get

- what you coded
