Answer 1

You can make the navigation bar transparent in viewWillAppear and remove transparency in viewWillDisappear as follows

override func viewWillAppear(_ animated: Bool) {
    super.viewWillAppear(animated)
    self.navigationController?.navigationBar.setBackgroundImage(UIImage(), for: .default)
    self.navigationController?.navigationBar.shadowImage = UIImage()
    self.navigationController?.navigationBar.isTranslucent = true
}
override func viewWillDisappear(_ animated: Bool) {
    super.viewWillDisappear(animated)
    self.navigationController?.navigationBar.setBackgroundImage(nil, for: .default)
    self.navigationController?.navigationBar.shadowImage = nil
    self.navigationController?.navigationBar.isTranslucent = false
}

The background image and the back button will be visible

Better you must avoid the navigation bar. Hide the navigation bar in the navigation controller and user custom view in your view controller to avoid this issue.

Swift 5::<\/strong> Calling below in AppDelegate's didFinishLaunchingWithOptions function does the trick (This will be applied to your all navigationBars though, don't forget to switch your view controllers)

let navBarAppearance = UINavigationBarAppearance()
navBarAppearance.configureWithTransparentBackground()
            
navigationController?.navigationBar.standardAppearance = navBarAppearance
navigationController?.navigationBar.scrollEdgeAppearance = navBarAppearance
