How to let users edit your navigation title
Updated for Xcode 14.2
SwiftUI’s NavigationStack can display a simple string by using navigationTitle(), but that same modifier can also accept a string binding so the user can edit the title by tapping on it.
Important: Navigation title editing only works when your navigation bar is operating in inline mode. As far as I know, it works only on iOS and iPadOS.
For example, this shows a default title of “Welcome”, but users can tap that title to change it:
struct ContentView: View {
@State private var title = "Welcome"
var body: some View {
NavigationStack {
Text("Hello, world!")
.navigationTitle($title)
.navigationBarTitleDisplayMode(.inline)
}
}
}

If your title is there because it represents the name of some content your user is editing, I would recommend adding .toolbarRole(.editor) so that your title is aligned to the leading edge like other document titles:
struct ContentView: View {
@State private var title = "Welcome"
var body: some View {
NavigationStack {
Text("Hello, world!")
.navigationTitle($title)
.navigationBarTitleDisplayMode(.inline)
.toolbarRole(.editor)
}
}
