Answer 1

In iOS8, if you set the UINavigationBar.barStyle to .Black you can set the bar's background as plain color without the border.

In Swift:

UINavigationBar.appearance().translucent = false
UINavigationBar.appearance().barStyle = UIBarStyle.Black
UINavigationBar.appearance().barTintColor = UIColor.redColor()

Answer 2

After studying the answer from Serhil, I created a pod UINavigationBar+Addition that can easily hide the hairline.

#import "UINavigationBar+Addition.h"

- (void)viewDidLoad {
    [super viewDidLoad];

    UINavigationBar *navigationBar = self.navigationController.navigationBar;
    [navigationBar hideBottomHairline];
}

Slightly Swift Solution 
func setGlobalAppearanceCharacteristics () {
    let navigationBarAppearace = UINavigationBar.appearance()
    navigationBarAppearace.tintColor = UIColor.white
    navigationBarAppearace.barTintColor = UIColor.blue
    navigationBarAppearace.setBackgroundImage(UIImage(), for: UIBarMetrics.default)
    navigationBarAppearace.shadowImage = UIImage()

}

In Swift 3.0

Edit your AppDelegate.swift by adding the following code to your application function:

// Override point for customization after application launch.

// Remove border in navigationBar
UINavigationBar.appearance().shadowImage = UIImage()
UINavigationBar.appearance().setBackgroundImage(UIImage(), for: .default)
