# dismissTextInputController()

Dismisses the text input controller without returning any text.

## Declaration

```swift
func dismissTextInputController()
```

## Discussion

Discussion Use this method to cancel a text input operation without accepting any input from the user. Dismissing the interface controller animates it off the screen and does not call the associated completion block.
