试试下面这段代码:

self.navigationController.navigationBar.translucent = YES;

这似乎很有效:

@implementation UINavigationBar (custom)
- (void)drawRect:(CGRect)rect {}
@end

navigationController.navigationBar.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];

在按照上面大家说的去做之后，也就是:

navigationController?.navigationBar.setBackgroundImage(UIImage(), forBarMetrics: .default)
navigationController?.navigationBar.shadowImage = UIImage()
navigationController!.navigationBar.isTranslucent = true

．.． 我的导航栏还是白色的。所以我加了这一行:

navigationController?.navigationBar.backgroundColor = .clear

．.． 果不其然!这似乎奏效了。

在iOS5中，你可以这样做，使导航栏透明:

nav.navigationBar.translucent = YES; // Setting this slides the view up, underneath the nav bar (otherwise it'll appear black)
const float colorMask[6] = {222, 255, 222, 255, 222, 255};
UIImage *img = [[UIImage alloc] init];
UIImage *maskedImage = [UIImage imageWithCGImage: CGImageCreateWithMaskingColors(img.CGImage, colorMask)];

[nav.navigationBar setBackgroundImage:maskedImage forBarMetrics:UIBarMetricsDefault]; 
[img release];

对于任何想在Swift 2.x中这样做的人:

self.navigationController?.navigationBar.setBackgroundImage(UIImage(), forBarMetrics: .Default)
self.navigationController?.navigationBar.shadowImage = UIImage()
self.navigationController?.navigationBar.translucent = true

或Swift 3.x:

self.navigationController?.navigationBar.setBackgroundImage(UIImage(), for: .default)
self.navigationController?.navigationBar.shadowImage = UIImage()
self.navigationController?.navigationBar.isTranslucent = true

另一种方式，为我工作是子类UINavigationBar和留下drawRect方法空!!

@IBDesignable class MONavigationBar: UINavigationBar {


// Only override drawRect: if you perform custom drawing.
// An empty implementation adversely affects performance during animation.
override func drawRect(rect: CGRect) {
    // Drawing code
}}
