Here's an example written in Swift 3:

let barButtonItem = UIBarButtonItem(image: UIImage(named: "image_path"), style: UIBarButtonItemStyle.done, target: self, action: #selector(ViewController.didTapBarButtonItem))
barButtonItem.tintColor = YOUR_COLOR_HERE
navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem = barButtonItem

You place this in the viewDidLoad method of your view controller.

Do i put this in the NavigationController.Swift ( Where the specific button is placed) or in the UITabBarViewController.Swift? – Dec 04 '16 at 10:30

Error:`Type 'FavoritesViewController' has no member 'didTapBarButtonItem'` – Dec 04 '16 at 12:46
You don't have Swift 3 .. And 'didTapBarButtonItem' is a method name I gave as an example ... Try to first learn the language. – Paul Razvan Berg Dec 04 '16 at 15:44
