I need to implement an Idle Time Out feature. To do that I simply need to know how to detect when the user touches the screen (something similar to onUserInteraction method used in Android).

So how can I simply discover when the user interacts with the ViewController?

P.S: if I ask this it is because you can't find nothing good in the internet!

My take is that you need to catch the event when user touches a screen. Method: touchesBegan:withEvent 

override func touchesBegan(touches: NSSet, withEvent event: UIEvent) {

  for touch in touches {

  // get the time measurement
  // compare it to previous one for time difference


  }

}
