Automatically adjust Navigation Item Title font size to fit

I'm using the newest version of Xcode and Swift.

I have a Navigation Bar with a Navigation Item Title. I'm using a normal small title, not the iOS 13 large title.

On some screens the Navigation Item Title is too long, so it gets truncated with a trailing …

Is there a way to auto adjust the font size to fit the title in Navigation Item Title?

Place the code below in viewDidLoad(), this should scale down the size of the text in your title without truncating it.:

    let navbarTitle = UILabel()
    navbarTitle.text = "My nav title"
    navbarTitle.minimumScaleFactor = 0.5
    navbarTitle.adjustsFontSizeToFitWidth = true
    navigationItem.titleView = navbarTitle

Hopefully this helps you out. Play with the minimumScaleFactor to find a value you'd like to have. If you need the title to be bold: How to make a UILabel bold.

Additionally here's a link that might be of use to you: Line break mode and number of lines on UILabel
