Using a UISegmentedControl in the footer of UIPopoverController

I just ran into this issue. You need to push a UINavigationController into the UIPopover. Your view should then be included in that navigation controller. This gets the top bar(navigation bar to format nicely). I would assume that the bottom bar follows this but I have not tested it!

What you need is to set the toolbarItems of your top UIViewController in your UIPopover and configure it properly. Consider something like this:

        NSArray *segmentedItems = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:@"Bookmarks", @"Recents", @"Contacts", nil];
        UISegmentedControl *ctrl = [[UISegmentedControl alloc] initWithItems:segmentedItems];
        ctrl.segmentedControlStyle = UISegmentedControlStyleBar;
        ctrl.selectedSegmentIndex = 0;

        UIBarButtonItem *item = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithCustomView:ctrl];
        ctrl.frame = CGRectMake(0.0f, 5.0f, 320.0f, 30.0f);

        NSArray *theToolbarItems = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:item, nil];
        [self setToolbarItems:theToolbarItems];
        [ctrl release]; 
        [item release];

EDIT: Now i got it, just do not set the tintColor, it will inherit the correct color (whatever it is). The screenshot below now looks exactly like the one in the Google Maps App:
