Custmizing the UINavigationBar

Question

I would like to set the color of the navigation bar on my app as well as the text color.

How does one do this?

I have seen people explaining methods where subviews are added to the bar, but there must be an easier(painstakingly) method.

Regards

Try this. Very untested (especially the last two lines may not always work, but if you play around with it you'll know if it does or not).

navigationController.navigationBar.tintColor = [UIColor purpleColor];
navigationController.topViewController.title = @"ye olde title";
UILabel *titleView = [navigationController.navigationBar.subviews objectAtIndex:0];
[titleView setFont:[UIFont fontWithName:@"Zapfino" size:10.f]];
