Answer 1

Try this code -

UITabBar.appearance().tintColor = UIColor.gray
UITabBar.appearance().unselectedItemTintColor = UIColor.gray

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

you can use the UITabBarControllerDelegate method in order to disable the selection

try this code 

func tabBarController(_ tabBarController: UITabBarController, shouldSelect viewController: UIViewController) -> Bool {
    return false
    }
