Remove tint from UISegmentedControl images iOS

Question

I have a UISegmentedControl which has 3 images rather than text. The images are all colored however the UISegmentedControl forces a tint on them which simply overrides their colors to blue or whatever color the tint is. Giving it a tint of UIColor.clear makes the images completely transparent.
From what I have gathered by reading various posts on here is that in case of a UIButton, removing the tint is done by setting the Type to Custom instead of System but I don't see this option for UISegmentedControl.
Is this a limitation? Should I use regular UIButtons instead? Any other work arounds?
Thanks

There is one way what you can do is set Render mode of your Image to Original Image. To set this select your image in Assets, after that in Attributes Inspector set Render As to Original Image, check below image for reference.

Output:
