Swift - How to hide back button in navigation item?

Ios Problem Overview

Right now I have two view controllers. My problem is I don't know how to hide the back button after transitioning to the second view controller. Most references that I found are in Objective-C. How do I code it in Swift?

Hide back button code in Objective-C

[self.navigationItem setHidesBackButton:YES animated:YES];

Solution 1 - Ios

According to the documentation for UINavigationItem :

self.navigationItem.setHidesBackButton(true, animated: true)

Solution 2 - Ios

In case you're using a UITabBarController:

override func viewWillAppear(animated: Bool) {
    super.viewWillAppear(animated)
    self.tabBarController?.navigationItem.hidesBackButton = true
}

Solution 3 - Ios

Swift

// remove left buttons (in case you added some)
 self.navigationItem.leftBarButtonItems = []
// hide the default back buttons
 self.navigationItem.hidesBackButton = true

Solution 4 - Ios

This is also found in the UINavigationController class documentation:

navigationItem.hidesBackButton = true

Solution 5 - Ios

Put it in the viewDidLoad method

navigationItem.hidesBackButton = true

Solution 6 - Ios

That worked for me in Swift 5 like a charm, just add it to your viewDidLoad()

self.navigationItem.setHidesBackButton(true, animated: true)

Solution 7 - Ios

Here is a version of the answer in

Swift 5

that you can use it from the storyboard:

// MARK: - Hiding Back Button

extension UINavigationItem {

    /// A Boolean value that determines whether the back button is hidden.
    ///
    /// When set to `true`, the back button is hidden when this navigation item
    /// is the top item. This is true regardless of the value in the
    /// `leftItemsSupplementBackButton` property. When set to `false`, the back button
    /// is shown if it is still present. (It can be replaced by values in either
    /// the `leftBarButtonItem` or `leftBarButtonItems` properties.) The default value is `false`.
    @IBInspectable var hideBackButton: Bool {
        get { hidesBackButton }
        set { hidesBackButton = newValue }
    }
}

Every navigation item of a view controller will have this new property in the top section of attributes inspector

Solution 8 - Ios

self.navigationItem.setHidesBackButton(true, animated: false)

Solution 9 - Ios

In SwiftUI .navigationBarBackButtonHidden(true)

Solution 10 - Ios

You may try with the below code

override func viewDidAppear(_ animated: Bool) {
    self.navigationController?.isNavigationBarHidden = true
}

Solution 11 - Ios

enter image description here

Go to attributes inspector and uncheck show Navigation Bar to hide back button.
