If/when I add more than 5 items to my TabView component the app crashes. This is for sure a bug. According to iOS dev library, if you add more than 5 items to the Tab controller, it will automatically add a "More" button in the last position, so when you tap it, it will show the other items in a list. Very neat.

Does this also apply in {N}? It should. Otherwise we have to create a "More" Item specifically, add listView innside, populate the list with data for each menu item. Program the tap for each listViewItem, that will also cause a page-navigation away from the view with the original TabView component, etc... Too much work and hassle compared to the native way.

The More Navigation Controller
The tab bar has limited space for displaying your custom items. If you add six or more custom view controllers to a tab bar controller, the tab bar controller displays only the first four items plus the standard More item on the tab bar. Tapping the More item brings up a standard interface for selecting the remaining items.
