iOS 7 tabBar-line, how to remove it?

Question

Apple has added a tiny line over the tabBar in iOS 7 which is supposed to work as a shadow or fade between the tabBar and the UI

Answer 1

    UIImage* tabBarBackground = [UIImage imageNamed:@"tabbar_bg.png"];
    [[UITabBar appearance] setShadowImage:tabBarBackground];
    [[UITabBar appearance] setBackgroundImage:tabBarBackground];   

Answer 2

now you can use it, with this line:

self.tabBarController.tabBar.barStyle = UIBarStyleBlack; 

Answer 3

These code works pretty well for me (I don't really have background image for tab bar):

[tab_main.tabBar setBackgroundImage:[[UIImage alloc] init]];
[[UITabBar appearance] setShadowImage:[[UIImage alloc] init]];

And I use these code to add a frame too:

UIColor* color_green = UIColorFromRGB(0x348e5b);
tab_main.tabBar.layer.borderWidth = 0.50;
tab_main.tabBar.layer.borderColor = color_green.CGColor;
[[UITabBar appearance] setTintColor:color_green];

Hope that helps.

Answer 4

self.tabBarController =  [[UITabBarController alloc] init];
[[[self tabBarController] tabBar] setBackgroundImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"YOURIMAGE.png"]];
[[UITabBar appearance] setShadowImage:[[UIImage alloc] init]];

Answer 5

 [_tabBarController.tabBar setBackgroundImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"tabtarsprnt"]]; //your custom image
[self.tabBarController.tabBar setClipsToBounds:YES];

this code also solved the my issue

Answer 6

Swift

Nice simple solution:

Write this below code in your custom tab bar class. Then it will hide horizontal shadow line.

self.tabBar.setValue(true, forKey: "_hidesShadow")

Objective C

[self.tabBar setValue:@(YES) forKeyPath:@"_hidesShadow"];
