Best practices for Storyboard login screen, handling clearing of data upon logout

In your appDelegate.m inside your didFinishLaunchingWithOptions

//authenticatedUser: check from NSUserDefaults User credential if its present then set your navigation flow accordingly

if (authenticatedUser) 
{
    self.window.rootViewController = [[UIStoryboard storyboardWithName:@"Main" bundle:[NSBundle mainBundle]] instantiateInitialViewController];        
}
else
{
    UIViewController* rootController = [[UIStoryboard storyboardWithName:@"Main" bundle:[NSBundle mainBundle]] instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:@"LoginViewController"];
    UINavigationController* navigation = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:rootController];

    self.window.rootViewController = navigation;
}

In SignUpViewController.m file

- (IBAction)actionSignup:(id)sender
{
    AppDelegate *appDelegateTemp = [[UIApplication sharedApplication]delegate];

    appDelegateTemp.window.rootViewController = [[UIStoryboard storyboardWithName:@"Main" bundle:[NSBundle mainBundle]] instantiateInitialViewController];
}

In file MyTabThreeViewController.m

- (IBAction)actionLogout:(id)sender {

    // Delete User credential from NSUserDefaults and other data related to user

    AppDelegate *appDelegateTemp = [[UIApplication sharedApplication]delegate];

    UIViewController* rootController = [[UIStoryboard storyboardWithName:@"Main" bundle:[NSBundle mainBundle]] instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:@"LoginViewController"];

    UINavigationController* navigation = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:rootController];
    appDelegateTemp.window.rootViewController = navigation;

}

Swift 4 Version

didFinishLaunchingWithOptions in app delegate assuming your initial view controller is the signed in TabbarController.

if Auth.auth().currentUser == nil {
        let rootController = UIStoryboard(name: "Main", bundle: Bundle.main).instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "WelcomeNavigation")
        self.window?.rootViewController = rootController
    }

    return true

In Sign up view controller:

@IBAction func actionSignup(_ sender: Any) {
let appDelegateTemp = UIApplication.shared.delegate as? AppDelegate
appDelegateTemp?.window?.rootViewController = UIStoryboard(name: "Main", bundle: Bundle.main).instantiateInitialViewController()
}

MyTabThreeViewController

 //Remove user credentials
guard let appDel = UIApplication.shared.delegate as? AppDelegate else { return }
        let rootController = UIStoryboard(name: "Main", bundle: Bundle.main).instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "WelcomeNavigation")
        appDel.window?.rootViewController = rootController
