swift 3 IOS - Back button issue

Question

I'm trying to go from viewController to Another

my problem is that the back button is showing as "<" and not "< Back" and i didn't understand why, especially cause i'm able to go from this viewController to another one, and the back button is perfect

do anyone faced the same problem ? and how could i solve it ?

@Anthony I wasn't quick enough posting an answer, but I added the code you'd need to set the back button title before you segue. — Adrian, Nov 01 '16 at 15:13

This can happen if the title of the new view controller is too long. I think the system in this scenario will favor removing "back" in order to make room for the long title

So try shortening the view controller title

You can customize the text of the back button with the following code...

override func prepare(for segue: UIStoryboardSegue, sender: Any?) {

    // your segue prep code
    self.navigationController?.navigationBar.topItem?.title = "Back"


}
