Hey, @triniwiz!

We confirmed that the ActionBar title fails to render sometimes. Can you share your case so we make sure we'll cover it, too?

@sis0k0 nice i thought it was just me not sure how much my info would help but the app currently has about 25 pages each updating their titles using ngx-translate and icons the thing is the icons show fine. Another thing i noticed is the way *ngIf worked with the ActionBar changed in v4 because before i could of done something like the following

<ActionBar title="Home">
    <NavigationButton icon="res://ic_arrow_back_white_24dp" (tap)="routerExtensions.back()"></NavigationButton>
    <ActionItem *ngIf="isIOS" (tap)="routerExtensions.back()" ios.position="left" icon="res://ic_chevron_left_white_36pt"></ActionItem>

    <ActionItem *ngIf="isAndroid" (tap)="share()">
        <Button text="&#xE80D;" class="material-icons action-bar-item"></Button>
    </ActionItem>
    <ActionItem *ngIf="isIOS" (tap)="share()" ios.systemIcon="9" ios.position="right"></ActionItem>
</ActionBar>

now nothing shows so i had to use a directive

Fixed with 1.5.1 patch.
