_setLocalStorageDatabasePath just has to be a private method and I don’t see any documentation on localStorageEnabled or anything similar so I’m guessing that’s a private method too.

Swift doesn’t let you call private methods, so you can’t do it. Well you could write a little shim in objective c and call that from Swift, I guess even that workaround will fail one day.

A quick google seems to indicate that not only are those methods private, they don’t exist in recent OS, so you need to find another way.
