UINavigationController “back button” custom text?

Question

The \"back button\" of a UINavigationController by default shows the title of the last view in the stack. Is there a way to have custom text in the back button

Answer 1

Put this into you viewDidLoad, hope it will result into what you are looking for

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