How to Hide Tab Bar Controller?

Use Tap Gesture Recognizer to detect double taps on a UIImageView. Then invoke a method on detecting the double double tap. Add the following line of code in that method.

self.tabBarController.tabBar.hidden=YES;

Hope this helps.

UIViewController has a property

@property(nonatomic, readonly, retain) UITabBarController *tabBarController

which you can set:

self.tabBarController.tabBar.hidden = YES;

Try this when you push the view to the new view:

self.tabbarconroller.tabbar.hidden = YES;
