Navigation controller bar is low for no reason

Question

I created a Tab Bar Controller, with 4 navigation controllers each containing one view controller, but on these view controllers, the bar titles are super low. It doesn't matter if I choose large title or not, the issue is the same with regular titles. Is it because of the tab bar?

Does someone knows how to fix it? When I set a custom frame for the navigation bar it doesn't have any influence. And when I push a new view controller, we can't interact with anything that's in the first 25% of the screen (probably because it's behind the navigation bar title, even when i set it to none). That's really weird, how do I set the titles higher or just disable them?

This is also what's in my scene delegate :

let storyboard = UIStoryboard(name: "TabBar", bundle: nil).instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "Main") as! UIViewController
let navigation = UINavigationController(rootViewController: storyboard)
window?.rootViewController = navigation
window?.makeKeyAndVisible()

The view controller with Identifier 'Main' is actually to tab bar at the top of the storyboard, so maybe there's an issue with my scene delegate, but I don't know why this could have an influence on the position of the navigation bar.

This code from your question:

// instantiate the UITabBarController with identifier "Main"
//  from Storyboard named "TabBar"
let storyboard = UIStoryboard(name: "TabBar", bundle: nil).instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "Main") as! UIViewController

// create a new UINavigationController, with the 
//  instantiated UITabBarController as its Root View Controller
let navigation = UINavigationController(rootViewController: storyboard)

// show the navigation controller
window?.rootViewController = navigation
window?.makeKeyAndVisible()

So, you have:

• a Navigation Controller (with its own navigation bar)
• holding a Tab Bar Controller
• each tab has its own navigation controller and navigation bar

Change your code to this (although it is very confusing object naming):

// instantiate the UITabBarController with identifier "Main"
//  from Storyboard named "TabBar"
let storyboard = UIStoryboard(name: "TabBar", bundle: nil).instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "Main") as! UIViewController

// show the tab bar controller
window?.rootViewController = storyboard
window?.makeKeyAndVisible()

That said... why are you not setting that directly in your project setup? Why do this loading from code?
