I finally found the solution. Changing the imageInsets of each tabbarItem did the trick. tabBarItem1.imageInsets =UIEdgeInsetsMake(6,0,-6,0); tabBarItem2.imageInsets =UIEdgeInsetsMake(6,0,-6,0); tabBarItem3.imageInsets =UIEdgeInsetsMake(6,0,-6,0); tabBarItem4.imageInsets =UIEdgeInsetsMake(6,0,-6,0); tabBarItem5.imageInsets =UIEdgeInsetsMake(6,0,-6,0); share | edit | flag answered  Nov 18 at 15:56
