Answer 1

Your Situation is - ItemViewController -> ItemDetailViewController (pushed on navigationController) Self.dismissViewController(..) dismiss a view controller that is presented over self(in ur case it is ItemViewController). Here, u did not presented any VC over self, instead u pushed a new VC over navigation stack. So, Correct way to dismiss ItemDetailViewController would be

self.navigationController.popViewController(true). please read the description of dismissViewController(....) to get more clarity.
