Try setting the interactive pop gesture recognizer delegate to nil:

self.navigationController.interactivePopGestureRecognizer.delegate = nil;

Woah this works! Can someone explain why this is required to get the gesture working again, though? – gokeji Jun 23 '17 at 23:13
@gokeji I wish I knew for sure. – davidethell Jul 06 '17 at 11:39
It's not working on iPhone 7 Plus, please let me know, if you can help me here – Sujit Baranwal May 15 '18 at 12:19

Sometime setting the delegate to nil causes the app UI to freeze in some scenarios. More [Here](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/18946302/uinavigationcontroller-interactive-pop-gesture-not-working#38532720) – Arnab Dec 11 '18 at 14:04

Sometimes it causes a glitch in the Navigation Bar, making it disappear – Viennarz Valdevieso Curtiz Aug 06 '19 at 01:56
I'm still getting upvotes seven years later. Does iOS really still require this? – davidethell Mar 10 '23 at 20:12

I got the same issue which was fixed after this

self.navigationController?.interactivePopGestureRecognizer?.isEnabled = true
self.navigationController?.interactivePopGestureRecognizer?.delegate = self

I have similar problem & got fixed using method from this answer

Simply, did you call

[super viewWillAppear:animated];

when overriding

- (void)viewWillAppear:(BOOL)animated {
    [super viewWillAppear:animated];
    // your other codes goes on
}
