Question

I have a UINavigationBar based application – only a one navigation bar that is handling all the work with views in my app.

And I want to have a tab bar at a bottom part of every view that will take the user to whatever view he would like to go.

What is the easiest way to add a tab bar to an application?

Thank you in advance,
Ilya.

Answer 1

Be sure to add the tabBar ABOVE your navigation bar in your view hierarchy. Depending on the structure of your user flow, you may end up with multiple navigationControllers.

                         tabBarController (w/ 3 sections, in this example)
                                |
                  ------------------------------
                  |             |               |
            navController1 navController2 navController3

Each navController maintains it’s own stack.
