The gist of it is to use this method introduced in iOS 7: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/uikit/uiscreen/1617814-snapshotview: With that you get a UIView containing a screenshot that includes the status bar. Once you have that, it’s just a matter of hiding your current view then pushing the screenshot view around. I posted a proof of concept here: https://github.com/simonholroyd/StatusBarTest … Read more
The plist setting “View controller-based status bar appearance” only controls if a per-controller based setting should be applied on iOS 7. If you set this plist option to NO, you have to manually enable and disable the status bar like (as it was until iOS 6): [[UIApplication sharedApplication] setStatusBarHidden:YES] If you set this plist option … Read more
This can be done. Google Search is doing it, which can be seen when you hover over a Google link, the status bar shows the underlying site: Yet when you click it, it brings you to a location and user-agent dependent url that looks like https://www.google.com.sg/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&ved=0CC8QFjAAahUKEwi4lP-Z4_rIAhVLk5QKHXRLAe8&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.example.com%2F&usg=AFQjCNFEbIRqDC65KFpmuak0aXKmnzjKVQ&bvm=bv.106923889,d.dGo. The url does Google tracking and whatnot before redirecting … Read more

This worked fine for me: – (void)navigationController:(UINavigationController *)navigationController willShowViewController:(UIViewController *)viewController animated:(BOOL)animated { [[UIApplication sharedApplication] setStatusBarHidden:YES]; } Edit: As of today i just found out that in your info.plist, if you just copy-paste view controller-based status bar appearance there it won’t work … you have to hit enter on a property, and scroll to the last … Read more
Use the following two code line to collapse the notification bar. Intent it = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_CLOSE_SYSTEM_DIALOGS); context.sendBroadcast(it);
iOS will invoke your viewController’s viewWillLayoutSubviews method whenever there is a change in status bar. You can override that and adjust your subviews according to the new bounds. – (void)viewWillLayoutSubviews { // Your adjustments accd to // viewController.bounds [super viewWillLayoutSubviews]; }
extension UIApplication { var statusBarView: UIView? { if responds(to: Selector((“statusBar”))) { return value(forKey: “statusBar”) as? UIView } return nil } } UIApplication.shared.statusBarView?.backgroundColor = .red Update for iOS 13 App called -statusBar or -statusBarWindow on UIApplication: this code must be changed as there’s no longer a status bar or status bar window. Use the statusBarManager object … Read more
The status bar is a system window owned by the operating system. On pre-5.0 Android devices, applications do not have permission to alter its color, so this is not something that the AppCompat library can support for older platform versions. The best AppCompat can do is provide support for coloring the ActionBar and other common … Read more
