Change UITabBar tint colors in the More menu

I'm trying to change the blue colour from icons in the more menu. I tried almost everything I found on Stack Overflow, but nothing worked. I tried this solution, but is not working.

The only option I found to change the colour was

[[UIView appearance] setTintColor:[UIColor redColor]];

but it changes all colours in the app.

tint color not changed tint colour changed using UIView appearance tint color

The code is just a new project with storyboard, so I just added the views on the storyboard.
Thanks for helping.

Edit: After I added the code:

    UIImage *myImage = [[UIImage imageNamed:@"music.png"] imageWithRenderingMode:UIImageRenderingModeAlwaysOriginal];
self.tabBarItem = [[UITabBarItem alloc] initWithTitle:@"New Title" image:myImage selectedImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"music.png"]];

The image is changed when the view is selected, but it's still blue.

This is the Swift version of Ludovic's answer.

Keep in mind that this version only changes the tint color, since the original answer did the text color change in a very hacky way. For changing it properly, you'd have to override moreNavigationController and its cellForRowAt function.

tabBarController?.tabBar.tintColor = .red

if let moreTableView = tabBarController?.moreNavigationController.topViewController?.view as? UITableView {
    moreTableView.tintColor = .red
}

To do what you need, you should use images by creating UITabBarItem for each controller and add an image and a selected image.

See Apple Documentation about UITabBarItem

Otherwise looks here, from @Aaron Brager :

Edit after seing the full code First there is many mistakes in your project, assets should be in xcassets folder, in view didload write your code after the 'super viewDidLoad]', etc.

About your problem, in your viewDidLoad method in the FirstViewController

- (void)viewDidLoad {
    [super viewDidLoad];
    // Do any additional setup after loading the view, typically from a nib.
    // Your code start here, not before the super
    [[UITabBar appearance] setTintColor:[UIColor redColor]];

    // Get table view of more new viewController
    UITableView *view =(UITableView*)self.tabBarController.moreNavigationController.topViewController.view;

    view.tintColor = [UIColor redColor]; // Change the image color

    if ([[view subviews] count]) {
        for (UITableViewCell *cell in [view visibleCells]) {
            cell.textLabel.textColor = [UIColor redColor]; // Change the text color

        }
    }
}
