iOS 7 UIBarButton back button arrow color

Question

I\'m trying to change the back button arrow

I\'m currently using the

Answer 1

To change the back button chevron color for a specific navigation controller*:

self.navigationController.navigationBar.tintColor = [UIColor whiteColor];

*If you are using an app with more than 1 navigation controller, and you want this chevron color to apply to each, you may want to use the appearance proxy to set the back button chevron for every navigation controller, as follows:

[[UINavigationBar appearance] setTintColor:[UIColor whiteColor]];

And for good measure, in swift (thanks to Jay Mayu in the comments):

UINavigationBar.appearance().tintColor = UIColor.whiteColor()
