    class ViewController: UIViewController {
    @IBOutlet weak var p1: UIProgressView!
    @IBOutlet weak var p2: UIProgressView!
    @IBOutlet weak var p3: UIProgressView!
    @IBOutlet weak var p4: UIProgressView!
    
    var outlets: [UIProgressView] = []
    override func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()
        // Do any additional setup after loading the view.
        outlets = [
            p1,p2,p3,p4
        ]
    }
}

    If you have other types of views you can use

    var outlets: [UIView] = [...]

    Open the Assistant Editor, right-click and drag from one of your UIProgressView’s or just drag from its "Referencing Outlet Collections" to the code file.
    Insert outlet collection

    Then you can drag from your swift file’s @IBOutlet to the rest of your UIProgressView’s. Add view to collection

    On top declare a variable first like this

    var outlets: [UIProgressView] = []

    and now on ViewDidLoad method you can use this to put all outlets on that array

    like this:

    outlets = [progressBar1, progressBar2, progressBar3, progressBar4]

    Hope you understand.

    As mentioned here Swift – IBOutletCollection equivalent you can use IBOutletCollection to do that. You can drag all your views to one IBOutlet array.

    @IBOutlet weak var progressBars: [UIProgressView]!

    For example, you can access the first progressBar like

    progressBars[0]

    But you have to careful about the order of progressBars, when you define IBOutletCollections the collection will not be order guaranteed. You can define the for each view and sort by their tags in runtime as mentioned here also Is IBOutletCollection guaranteed to be of correct order?

    To order all views by their tags like

    progressBars = progressBars.sorted { $0.tag < $1.tag }
