When I push a view onto the navigation controller the back button’s title get’s set to the title of the previous view. How can I get the back button to just say “Back”?

Write this code in your viewwillappear:

UIBarButtonItem *_backButton = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithTitle:@"Back" style:UIBarButtonItemStyleDone target:nil action:nil];
self.navigationItem.backBarButtonItem = _backButton;
[_backButton release];
_backButton = nil;
