UISwipeGestureRecognizer Swipe length

It’s impossible to get a distance from a swipe gesture, because the SwipeGesture triggers the method where you could access the location exactly one time, when the gesture has ended.
Maybe you want to use a UIPanGestureRecognizer.

If it possible for you to use pan gesture you would save the starting point of the pan, and if the pan has ended calculate the distance.

- (void)panGesture:(UIPanGestureRecognizer *)sender {
    if (sender.state == UIGestureRecognizerStateBegan) {
        startLocation = [sender locationInView:self.view];
    }
    else if (sender.state == UIGestureRecognizerStateEnded) {
        CGPoint stopLocation = [sender locationInView:self.view];
        CGFloat dx = stopLocation.x - startLocation.x;
        CGFloat dy = stopLocation.y - startLocation.y;
        CGFloat distance = sqrt(dx*dx + dy*dy );
        NSLog(@"Distance: %f", distance);
    }
}
