In your 'application:didFinishLaunchingWithOptions'

(window?.rootViewController as! UITabBarController).tabBar.tintColor = UIColor.red

or use appearance delegate.

UITabBar.appearance().tintColor = UIColor.red

Another good solution:

Add Runtime Color attribute named "tintColor".

It will change image tint color as well as title tint color.

Go to AppDelegate.swift file. In 'application:didFinishLaunchingWithOptions' write:

UITabBar.appearance().unselectedItemTintColor = UIColor.red
