Question

Is this piece of code suppose to set the title on the ViewController I am connecting to?

The 2 UIViewControllers are connected via a push segue – the first one is embedded in a NavigationController.

-(void)prepareForSegue:(UIStoryboardSegue *)segue sender:(id)sender
{
 if ([[segue identifier] isEqualToString:@"settingsSegue"])
 {

     self.navigationItem.title = [[NSString alloc] initWithFormat:@"Custom Title"];

 }
 }

It does not work for me, but the syntax is right.

Advance Thanks:-)

Set the title in the viewDidLoad of the destination viewcontroller using a property in the destination VC:

if ([[segue identifier] isEqualToString:@"settingsSegue"]) {
    MyDestinationViewController *mdvc = segue.destinationViewController;
    mdvc.myTitle = [[NSString alloc] initWithFormat:@"Custom Title"];
}

Then in the viewDidLoad event in MyDestinationViewController.h:

@property (nonatomic,strong) NSString *myTitle;

In MyDestinationViewController.m:

@synthesize myTitle;

And finally in viewDidLoad:

self.title = myTitle;
