Get safe area inset top and bottom heights

Try this :

In Objective C

if (@available(iOS 11.0, *)) {
    UIWindow *window = UIApplication.sharedApplication.windows.firstObject;
    CGFloat topPadding = window.safeAreaInsets.top;
    CGFloat bottomPadding = window.safeAreaInsets.bottom;
}

In Swift

if #available(iOS 11.0, *) {
    let window = UIApplication.shared.keyWindow
    let topPadding = window?.safeAreaInsets.top
    let bottomPadding = window?.safeAreaInsets.bottom
}

In Swift - iOS 13.0 and above

// Use the first element from windows array as KeyWindow deprecated

if #available(iOS 13.0, *) {
    let window = UIApplication.shared.windows.first
    let topPadding = window.safeAreaInsets.top
    let bottomPadding = window.safeAreaInsets.bottom
}

To get the height between the layout guides you just do

let guide = view.safeAreaLayoutGuide
let height = guide.layoutFrame.size.height

So full frame height = 812.0, safe area height = 734.0

Below is the example where the green view has frame of guide.layoutFrame
