Hi, When you set the title of the navigation item, it renames the view controller as well, so there’ isn’t any problem with that.
The reason you aren't seeing the button is that you have it connected to the backBarButtonItem. Since the navigation bars app is the top most view controller, the button won’t show when you run the app because there isn’t anything to go back to. You might find the UINavigationItem reference helpful at https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/UIKit/Reference/UINavigationItem_Class/ <https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/UIKit/Reference/UINavigationItem_Class/>. If you want to see the button, you could just connect it to the left or wright barbuttonitems instead. So, you haven’t done anything wrong and everything seems to be working correctly. Hope this helps. On Aug 4, 2015, at 8:35 AM, Venkatesh Potluri <[email protected]> wrote: Hi Barry, Thank you so much for the clear explanation. I was able to go a step further, embed it and add a title to the navigation bar. However, when I add the title, I observe the viewController seen is renamed with the title. I also tried adding a barButtonItem as per your instructions and connect it one of the outlet from the navigation item in the now renamed seen to the barButtonItem. I named the barButtonItem “play”. When I run the app and navigate the simulator with VoiceOver, I hear VoiceOver speak only the title of the navigationBar. Where am I going wrong? My effort to add a navigationBar for now is to complete a tutorial to learn building apps for iOS. I am attaching 2 files that may help you get a clear idea of where I am going wrong. 1. “my implementation.zip” contains my xCode project. In this project, I attempted to add a navigation bar and a barButtonItem to it. 2. “original source.zip” contains the xCode project provided in the tutorial. My aim is to build a replica or an app similar to this. It would be of great help if you could help me identify my mistake. Once again, Thank you so much for taking the time to help me understand this. Thank you.

To connect the bar button to the nav bar, you find the navigation item in the view controller seen and drag from one of it’s outlets to the bar button. Let me know if that still isn’t clear.

What exactly do I drag on to the view controller seen? You said, you drag from one of the navigation barButtonItems outlets. Didn't really get that part. If explaining through email would be difficult, I would be happy to contact you off list and we could set up a Skype call. I really appreciate your effort to explain this procedure in a clear way to me.
