in your app delegate add tabbar controller then add your view controllers to tabbar controller and set the window rootview controller to tabbar controller.

- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions
{
self.window = [[UIWindow alloc] initWithFrame:[[UIScreen mainScreen] bounds]];
// Override point for customization after application launch.
 self.tabbar=[[UITabBarController alloc] init];

   self.vc1 = [[vc1 alloc] initWithNibName:@"ViewController_iPhone" bundle:nil];
   // do the same to other VCs
    self.tabbar.viewControllers=[NSArray arrayWithObjects:vc1,vc2,vc3,vc4, nil];


self.window.rootViewController = self.tabbar;

[self.window makeKeyAndVisible];
return YES;

}
