iOS UITabBar : Remove top shadow gradient line

Question

I implemented a custom UITabBar and I still have this gradient/shadow on top of it. I added

[self.tabBar setBackgroundImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@\"navBarBotto

Answer 1

Try this on viewDidload.

override func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()

        self.tabBar.setValue(true, forKey: "_hidesShadow")
}

It work for me

Answer 2

Place this in your AppDelegate under didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:

[[UITabBar appearance] setShadowImage:[[UIImage alloc] init]];
[[UITabBar appearance] setBackgroundImage:[[UIImage alloc] init]];

Answer 3

if you need to remove the shadow line on iOS 13 from a tab bar that has a custom font, then you have to apply it this way:

if #available(iOS 13.0, *) {
   let appearance = UITabBarAppearance()
   appearance.stackedLayoutAppearance.normal.titleTextAttributes = ...
   appearance.stackedLayoutAppearance.selected.titleTextAttributes = ...
   appearance.shadowColor = .clear
   tabBar.standardAppearance = appearance
 }
