Using approach with setting each UITabBarItems title property to "" and update imageInsets won't work properly if in view controller self.title is set. For example if self.viewControllers of UITabBarController are embedded in UINavigationController and you need title to be displayed on navigation bar. In this case set UINavigationItems title directly using self.navigationItem.title, not self.title.
