Answer 1

Add this in your code . .

let textAttributes = [NSForegroundColorAttributeName:UIColor.red] navigationController?.navigationBar.titleTextAttributes = textAttributes 

SWIFT 4:

let textAttributes = [NSAttributedStringKey.foregroundColor:UIColor.red] navigationController?.navigationBar.titleTextAttributes = textAttributes 

SWIFT 4.2+:

let textAttributes = [NSAttributedString.Key.foregroundColor:UIColor.red] navigationController?.navigationBar.titleTextAttributes = textAttributes 

Keeping all the other attributes of the title: If you just want change the color you could do like this:

if var textAttributes = navigationController?.navigationBar.titleTextAttributes {     textAttributes[NSAttributedString.Key.foregroundColor] = UIColor.red     navigationController?.navigationBar.titleTextAttributes = textAttributes } 

Answer 2
