I am using a UITabBarController where i want to load a custom colorful image to the respective TabBar. I want to customize the font size,color and type of the Text for the UITabBar item. I have tried out many possibilities by using image property for the tabBar and tried to create a imageview and adding it as an subview to the tabBar. Can someone please provide any alternative to this problem?

The only way for this is implementing your own custom tab bar controller. You can find many tutorial on the web if you google "custom tab bar". This is one for iOS 5. And here, you can find another.

  • Is it accepted to subclass the UITabBar class? I mean will Apple reject the application incase the UITabBar class is subclassed? – Pradeep Reddy Kypa May 07 '12 at 16:32
  • I don't think Apple will reject an app that subclasses `UITabBar`, but the point is: you don't need to subclass `UITabBar` to create a custom tab bar controller. have a look at the tutorials... – sergio May 07 '12 at 16:42
