Can we hide the status bar?

Question

Not just the bar but the texts the battery sign etc in IOS

[UIApplication sharedApplication].statusBarHidden=hidden;

Don't seem to work at all.

Set **View controller-based status bar appearance** property at your plist file to NO — Dimitris Bouzikas, Mar 13 '14 at 06:40

-(BOOL)prefersStatusBarHidden
{
    if ([[UIDevice currentDevice] userInterfaceIdiom] == UIUserInterfaceIdiomPad)
    {
        return NO;
    }
    else
    {
        return YES;
    }
}

Try this code once in your view controller,may be it will helps you.

Open your info.plist and add two attributes if not present.

set "Status bar is initially hidden" to "YES" and set "UIViewControllerBasedStatusBarAppearance" to "NO".

This will hide status bar for your app
