You need add in viewDidLoad() :

searchController.hidesNavigationBarDuringPresentation = false

You need to set definesPresentationContext to true on the view controller which presents your searchController.

Your are doing this: 

searchController.definesPresentationContext = true

but should do this:

definesPresentationContext = true
