You can call this function from each controller passing self.tabBarController and each color you want.

Function :

static func customTabBar(controller: UIViewController?, backgroundColor: String, unselectedColor: String, selectedColor: String) {
        if let tabBarController = controller as? UITabBarController {
            tabBarController.tabBar.barTintColor = UIColor(hex: backgroundColor)
            tabBarController.tabBar.tintColor = UIColor(hex: selectedColor)
            tabBarController.tabBar.isTranslucent = false
            tabBarController.tabBar.selectedItem?.setTitleTextAttributes([NSAttributedString.Key.foregroundColor:UIColor(hex: selectedColor)], for: UIControl.State.selected)
            if #available(iOS 10.0, *) {
                tabBarController.tabBar.unselectedItemTintColor = UIColor(hex: unselectedColor)
            } else {
                // Fallback on earlier versions
            }
        }
    }
