I've always used
override var prefersStatusBarHidden: Bool {return true}
to hide the status bar in a single UIViewController .. But I'm having problems with iOS 13 for this ...
I don't understand why var prefersStatusBarHidden
is not called ..
in my plist file I set View controller-based status bar appearance = YES but it doesn't work ...
the status bar is always visible ... how can I solve it?
On an iPhone X-type device (anything without a bezel), Apple does not want you to hide the status bar, so your view controller's prefersStatusBarHidden is not called.
You may be able to work around this by subclassing UINavigationViewController; in my testing, that worked, but I don't know whether Apple would approve.
