Is it possible to disable automatic color inversion in iOS 26 UINavigationBar which triggered by the system depending on background? Can't find any new method in documentation for that.

This is for example happening when a UITableView is under (or close by) and when the content under is of another dark/light variant such as the background+title should be changed. Then the system automatically changes the background (if not clear) + title.

Is there a way to disable such behaviour? Changing the UINavigationBarAppearance does not seem to have any effect.

iOS doesn't have a specific way to turn off automatic color inversion for the UINavigationBar when system settings like Smart Invert are active. However, you can control this by using UINavigationBarAppearance to set fixed colors for the background and text, avoiding system-dependent colors. You can also check if color inversion is enabled with UIAccessibility.isInvertColorsEnabled and manually adjust the navigation bar's appearance. While there isn't a direct setting to disable inversion, these steps let you control how the navigation bar looks even when the system changes colors.
