Reachability check Best practices AppDelegate vs Viewcontroller

I want to ask about what is the best checking the App connectivity ‘Reachability’ inside each Viewcontroller.swift or write a global check inside the AppDelegate and make it async because I have been reading a couple of tutorials and articles about this topic. Can someone give me some advice and code improvement are welcome?

this is my code from my AppDelegate

import UIKit

@UIApplicationMain
class AppDelegate: UIResponder, UIApplicationDelegate {

var window: UIWindow?


func application(_ application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplicationLaunchOptionsKey: Any]?) -> Bool {
    // Override point for customization after application launch.
    
    NetworkManager.isUnreachable { _ in
        self.showOfflinePage()
    }
    
    NetworkManager.isReachable { _ in
        self.showMainPage()
    }
    return true
}

func applicationWillResignActive(_ application: UIApplication) {
    // Sent when the application is about to move from active to inactive state. This can occur for certain types of temporary interruptions (such as an incoming phone call or SMS message) or when the user quits the application and it begins the transition to the background state.
    // Use this method to pause ongoing tasks, disable timers, and invalidate graphics rendering callbacks. Games should use this method to pause the game.
    
    
}

func applicationDidEnterBackground(_ application: UIApplication) {
    // Use this method to release shared resources, save user data, invalidate timers, and store enough application state information to restore your application to its current state in case it is terminated later.
    // If your application supports background execution, this method is called instead of applicationWillTerminate: when the user quits.
}

func applicationWillEnterForeground(_ application: UIApplication) {
    // Called as part of the transition from the background to the active state; here you can undo many of the changes made on entering the background.
}

func applicationDidBecomeActive(_ application: UIApplication) {
    // Restart any tasks that were paused (or not yet started) while the application was inactive. If the application was previously in the background, optionally refresh the user interface.
}

func applicationWillTerminate(_ application: UIApplication) {
    // Called when the application is about to terminate. Save data if appropriate. See also applicationDidEnterBackground:.
}



    private func showOfflinePage() -> Void {
        DispatchQueue.main.async {
            // Then push that view controller onto the navigation stack
            let rootViewController = self.window!.rootViewController
            rootViewController?.performSegue(withIdentifier: "NetworkUnavailable", sender: self)
        }
    }

    private func showMainPage() -> Void {
        DispatchQueue.main.async {
            // Then push that view controller onto the navigation stack
            let rootViewController = self.window!.rootViewController
            rootViewController?.performSegue(withIdentifier: "MainController", sender: self)
        }
    }

}

I don’t think I have the best answer around but I would prefer to put my reachability check in my network wrapper exclusively just so the code doesn’t have to be copy pasted elsewhere
