Answer 3

You have to change the previous controller's title, try doing so before the segue in the viewDidDisappear

Answer 4

You should use:

navigationItem.backBarButtonItem = UIBarButtonItem(title: "", style: .Plain, target: nil, action: nil)

for see just < instead of < viewController

Answer 5

To remove the backButtonItem's title, place this line of code in the viewDidLoad: of the View Controller that the backButtonItem is in:

navigationItem.backBarButtonItem = UIBarButtonItem(title: "", style: .Plain, 
target: nil, action: nil)

Answer 6

self.navigationItem.leftBarButtonItem=nil;

or

self.navigationItem.backBarButtonItem=nil;
