Change UITabBar Height

If you need to amend the UITabBar in order to fit your layout or design perfectly, a common place to start is with the height.

A quick and simple way I have been able to change the height is to subclass the UITabBar and then override the sizeThatFits(size: CGSize) function.

If you are using Storyboards, you can then set the class of the Tab Bar using the Custom Class option.

Below is a code example of the subclass:

class CustomTabBar: UITabBar { 

     override func sizeThatFits(size: CGSize) -> CGSize { 
          var size = super.sizeThatFits(size) 
          size.height = 88 
          return size 
     } 
}

class CustomTabBar: UITabBar {

override func sizeThatFits(size: CGSize) -> CGSize {

var size = super.sizeThatFits(size)

size.height = 88

return size

}
