UIActionSheet has been deprecated in iOS 8.3. The suggestion is to replace it with UIAlertController, however, my UIActionSheet is set up to contain an UISegmentedControl and an UIDatePicker. UIAlertController documentation explicitly says:
Important
The UIAlertController class is intended to be used as-is and does not
support subclassing. The view hierarchy for this class is private and
must not be modified.
So clearly I cannot use UIAlertController. What is my best option?

UIActionSheetnever actually supported adding custom controls even if you got it to work.UIAlertControlleris no different. Your best option is to right (or find) a custom popup that does what you want.

You have many options, actually. Keep usingUIActionSheet, customizeUIAlertControlleror stop be a rebel and create a custom View Controller.

I'm afraid you are right. Adding subviews toUIActionSheetwas easy and convenient, and never explicitly forbidden AFAICR.

@Jean-DenisMuys From the documentation forUIActionSheet: "UIActionSheet is not designed to be subclassed, nor should you add views to its hierarchy. If you need to present a sheet with more customization than provided by the UIActionSheet API, you can create your own and present it modally with present(_:animated:completion:)".UIAlertControllerdocumentation states something similar.
