I want to hide a toolbar and nav bar as I scroll down a page. And return it as I scroll up. How is this possible?

How would I go about detecting the drag? Do I use pan gesture or is this down with the scrollview?

Try this simple approach: Tested in Swift 3

    func scrollViewWillEndDragging(_ scrollView: UIScrollView, withVelocity velocity: CGPoint, targetContentOffset: UnsafeMutablePointer<CGPoint>) {

    if(velocity.y>0) {
        //Code will work without the animation block.I am using animation block incase if you want to set any delay to it.
        UIView.animate(withDuration: 2.5, delay: 0, options: UIViewAnimationOptions(), animations: { 
            self.navigationController?.setNavigationBarHidden(true, animated: true) 
            self.navigationController?.setToolbarHidden(true, animated: true)
            print("Hide")
        }, completion: nil)

    } else {
        UIView.animate(withDuration: 2.5, delay: 0, options: UIViewAnimationOptions(), animations: { 
            self.navigationController?.setNavigationBarHidden(false, animated: true)
            self.navigationController?.setToolbarHidden(false, animated: true)
            print("Unhide")
        }, completion: nil)    
      }
   }

Output: Updated

Note: If you passing any data from this VC to another VC that embedded with navigationController.You may need to unhide the NavigationBar.

In my opinion the proper way to handle navigation bar in Tableview as follows. This would applicable if we have section header in Tableview.

func scrollViewWillBeginDecelerating(_ scrollView: UIScrollView) {
   if scrollView.panGestureRecognizer.translation(in: scrollView).y < 0 {
      navigationController?.setNavigationBarHidden(true, animated: true)

   } else {
      navigationController?.setNavigationBarHidden(false, animated: true)
   }
}

you can try self.navigationController?.hidesBarsOnTap = true in viewDidAppear also you can use hide on swipe.

Here is very good option for that

Easily hide and show a view controller's navigationBar/tabBar as a user scrolls https://github.com/tristanhimmelman/HidingNavigationBar

import HidingNavigationBar

class MyViewController: UIViewController, UITableViewDataSource, UITableViewDelegate {

    var hidingNavBarManager: HidingNavigationBarManager?
    @IBOutlet weak var tableView: UITableView!

    override func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()

        hidingNavBarManager = HidingNavigationBarManager(viewController: self, scrollView: tableView)
    }

    override func viewWillAppear(animated: Bool) {
        super.viewWillAppear(animated)

        hidingNavBarManager?.viewWillAppear(animated)
    }

    override func viewDidLayoutSubviews() {
        super.viewDidLayoutSubviews()

        hidingNavBarManager?.viewDidLayoutSubviews()
    }

    override func viewWillDisappear(animated: Bool) {
        super.viewWillDisappear(animated)

        hidingNavBarManager?.viewWillDisappear(animated)
    }

    //// TableView datasoure and delegate

    func scrollViewShouldScrollToTop(scrollView: UIScrollView) -> Bool {
        hidingNavBarManager?.shouldScrollToTop()

        return true
    }

    ...
}

Swift UI

extension UINavigationController {
    override open func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()
    hidesBarsOnSwipe = true
    // other customizations
    navigationBar.tintColor = .white
 }
}

I implemented this in my scrollview, as I was using components other than UITableView or UICollectionView, not sure if it works for you, but it's working perfectly for me:

func scrollViewDidScroll(_ scrollView: UIScrollView) {
    let totalTop = (UIApplication.shared.statusBarFrame.size.height ?? 0) + (self.navigationController?.navigationBar.frame.height ?? 0)
    let shouldHideNavBar = scrollView.contentOffset.y > -(totalTop - 20) // 20 is an arbitrary number I added to compensate for some of scrolling
    navigationController?.setNavigationBarHidden(shouldHideNavBar, animated: true)
}

You can use these lines of code :

- (void)scrollViewDidScroll: (UIScrollView *)scroll {
    // UITableView only moves in one direction, y axis
    CGFloat currentOffset = scroll.contentOffset.y;
    CGFloat maximumOffset = scroll.contentSize.height - scroll.frame.size.height;

    // Change 10.0 to adjust the distance from bottom
    if (maximumOffset - currentOffset <= 10.0) {
        self.navigationController?.hidden = YES;
    }
    else{
        self.navigationController?.hidden = NO;
    }
}
