I have really great wish to set my own color to UITextField border. But so far I could find out how to change the border line style only.

I've used background property to set background color in such way:

self.textField.backgroundColor = textFieldColor;

But I have to change color of UITextField border too. And my question was about how to change the border color.

Import the following class:

#import <QuartzCore/QuartzCore.h>

//Code for setting the grey color for the border of the text field

[[textField layer] setBorderColor:[[UIColor colorWithRed:171.0/255.0
                                                   green:171.0/255.0
                                                    blue:171.0/255.0
                                                   alpha:1.0] CGColor]];

Replace 171.0 with the respective color number as required.

Update for swift 5.0

textField.layer.masksToBounds = true
textField.layer.borderColor = UIColor.blue.cgColor
textField.layer.borderWidth = 1.0

extension UIView {
    func addBorder(_ width: CGFloat = 1, color: UIColor = .black, cornerRadius: CGFloat = 4) {
        layer.borderWidth = width
        layer.borderColor = color.cgColor
        layer.cornerRadius = cornerRadius
    }
}

Call this like: email.addBorder(1.0, color: .blue, cornerRadius: 5).
