Only image as UITabBarItem

Question

I would only like to have an icon as the UITabBarItem and not the text underneath and I was wondering if this was possible, if so, how? TIA

Try with below code:

UIViewController *viewController1=[[RootViewController alloc]initWithNibName:@"RootViewController" bundle:nil];
UIViewController *viewController2=[[SecondViewCtr alloc]initWithNibName:@"SecondViewCtr" bundle:nil];
UIViewController *viewController3=[[ThirdViewCtr alloc]initWithNibName:@"ThirdViewCtr" bundle:nil];
UIViewController *viewController4=[[FourthVIewCtr alloc]initWithNibName:@"FourthVIewCtr" bundle:nil];
UIViewController *viewController5=[[FIfthViewCtr alloc]initWithNibName:@"FIfthViewCtr" bundle:nil];


UINavigationController *nav1 = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:viewController1];
UINavigationController *nav2 = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:viewController2];
UINavigationController *nav3 = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:viewController3];
UINavigationController *nav4 = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:viewController4];
UINavigationController *nav5 = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:viewController5];
peekArray = [[NSMutableArray alloc] init];

self.tabBarController = [[UITabBarController alloc] init];
self.tabBarController.viewControllers = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:nav1, nav2,nav3,nav4,nav5, nil];

UITabBar *tabBar = _tabBarController.tabBar;
UITabBarItem *tabBarItem1 = [tabBar.items objectAtIndex:0];
UITabBarItem *tabBarItem2 = [tabBar.items objectAtIndex:1];
UITabBarItem *tabBarItem3 = [tabBar.items objectAtIndex:2];
UITabBarItem *tabBarItem4 = [tabBar.items objectAtIndex:3];
UITabBarItem *tabBarItem5 = [tabBar.items objectAtIndex:4];

[tabBarItem1 setFinishedSelectedImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"home123.png"] withFinishedUnselectedImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"home_112.png"]];
[tabBarItem2 setFinishedSelectedImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"gift123.png"] withFinishedUnselectedImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"gift_112.png"]];
[tabBarItem3 setFinishedSelectedImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"cam12.png"] withFinishedUnselectedImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"cam_112.png"]];
[tabBarItem4 setFinishedSelectedImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"message12.png"] withFinishedUnselectedImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"message_112.png"]];
[tabBarItem5 setFinishedSelectedImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"people12.png"] withFinishedUnselectedImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"people_112.png"]];

[self.tabBarController setSelectedIndex:0];
self.window.rootViewController = self.tabBarController;
