UITabBarController selectedIndex/selectedViewController does not color tab on iOS 13

At app startup, on iOS 13, setting my UITabBarController's selectedIndex or selectedViewController does show the correct view controller, but all tab icons remain grey.

I do this in AppDelegate and it's been working for years and still is working fine on iOS 12.

Even after setting the selected tab again after a seconds long delay (well after the app and UI are up and running), all icons remain grey.

All calls are done on the main thread.

Then, after a tap on a tab it turns blue and everything is fine.

Is this a bug or a feature of iOS 13 or am I missing something?

Did you find a solution? – Yonat Aug 16 '20 at 05:20
faced the same problem, did you find solution? – Abrcd18 May 23 '22 at 11:13
@Abrcd18 Had a look. Seems I deleted this feature (remembering which tab was last selected). So at startup I just let it default to the first tab being selected. – meaning-matters May 24 '22 at 11:47
