UIRefreshControl

I'm afraid I don't know... but take a look at some custom classes, maybe you'll find something of use in there that shows how it's done: http://www.cocoacontrols.com/search?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=indicator — Luke, Feb 02 '13 at 02:27

You can do it by setting the Tint Color of the UIRefreshControl, something like this:

Objective C [refreshControl setTintColor:[UIColor blackColor]];

Swift refreshControl.tintColor = .black

This will also change the arrow that expands when you slide.

As the previous answer is outdated, I thought that I would just modify it to Swift 4 and share the solution (credit goes to @subharb).

refreshControl.tintColor = UIColor.white

This line of code will change the color of the UIActivityIndicatorView to whatever color you want it to be :)
