you want to completely remove it? or just do not show the title, but only the `<`, and with the functionality of going back? — Laura Calinoiu, Mar 19 '17 at 19:48

You can do this by accessing the navigationItem of the UINavigationController, and using the setHidesBackButton(_:animated:) method.

self.navigationController?.navigationItem.setHidesBackButton(true, animated: false)

You can read about the method in Apple's documentation here: https://developer.apple.com/reference/uikit/uinavigationitem/1624934-sethidesbackbutton
