How to hide Android StatusBar in Flutter

Question

How to hide the Android Status Bar in a Flutter App?

Answer 1

SystemChrome.setEnabledSystemUIOverlays([]) should do what you want.

You can bring it back with SystemChrome.setEnabledSystemUIOverlays(SystemUiOverlay.values).

Import it using

import 'package:flutter/services.dart';

Update answer (from Flutter 2.5 or latest):

SystemChrome.setEnabledSystemUIMode(SystemUiMode.leanBack);

Or you can use another options like:

SystemChrome.setEnabledSystemUIMode(SystemUiMode.manual, overlays: [
  SystemUiOverlay.bottom
]);  // to only hide the status bar

Then when you need to re-show it (like when dispose) use this:

  @override
  void dispose() {
    super.dispose();

    SystemChrome.setEnabledSystemUIMode(SystemUiMode.manual, overlays: SystemUiOverlay.values);  // to re-show bars

  }
