simply add this line to your code getActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(false); or if using AppCompactActivity getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(false) — Vivek Barai, Dec 18 '17 at 11:21

You can add Action Bar like this:

<Alloy>
    <Window title="Action Bar Title">
        <ActionBar platform="android" displayHomeAsUp="true" onHomeIconItemSelected="close"></ActionBar>
    </Window>
</Alloy>

You can even add Subtitle, Menu Items, Overflow Menu, icons, & even custom views.

For more control over ActionBar for full customizations, Titanium has introduced Toolbar in SDK 6.2.0 - Read about Titanium Android Toolbar here

write this in onCreate

   {
          getSupportActionBar().setHomeButtonEnabled(true);
          getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);
         getSupportActionBar().setDisplayShowHomeEnabled(true);

override onOptionsItemSelected method

          public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {

           switch (item.getItemId()){

              case android.R.id.home:
            onBackPressed();
                break;
        }
  }
        return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);

}

Before writing answers, do read questions properly. User is asking to add ActionBar in Appcelerator, not in native Android. — Prashant Saini, Dec 18 '17 at 14:36
