I know that iOS 5 allows for UINavigationBar customisation, but I'm not sure it does what I need. I want to remove the bar entirely, or at least make it invisible, but keep the buttons (backButton, rightBarButton, etc) and replace them with my own images. I could implement actual buttons, but keeping the navBar is far more convenient as I want to use its behaviour. Is this possible? Many thanks.

You can set the navBar to hidden and handle all of the navigation yourself. The navigation controller is still there, but navigation is overridden with your custom buttons.

  • Perhaps this is the simplest solution. – Nicolas Miari May 30 '12 at 15:42
  • We do this at work all the time. It forces you to build your own navbar/buttons, but you can do whatever you want with it and just push/pop the views on and off as needed. Building a nice UI... that is up to you. ;) – Bill Burgess Jun 01 '12 at 13:34
