UINavigationBar Weird Standard Height

Question

I am confused when I see my app's UINavigationBar's height. It seems to be taller than other apps and the size of it's Status Bar font is bigger than other apps

Please take a look at the screenshots below. I did not do anything to my app's NavigationBar.

What could possibly caused this?

Thoughts??

Thank you!!!!

I'm guessing those screen shots are on an iPhone 6. So evidently your app is not iPhone 6 native. Therefore it is portrayed as an iPhone 5 app, zoomed - hence larger.

This is a pity because you are not getting all the pixels you are entitled to (and also I believe it won't get past the gatekeepers at the App Store).

How do I set it to "iPhone 6 native" though? Really confused – JayVDiyk May 13 '15 at 02:33
I mean if you revised it today it wouldn't get on the store. I could be wrong of course – matt May 13 '15 at 02:37
So what could I do to fix this? any idea? Searched everywhere and you are the only one pointing this out – JayVDiyk May 13 '15 at 02:38
Use correct launch image or nib. – matt May 13 '15 at 02:40

It's kind of a long-shot But conform to the UINavigationBarDelegate and try implementing this method

- (UIBarPosition)positionForBar:(id<UIBarPositioning>)bar {
    return UIBarPositionTopAttached;
}

The greater likelihood is that it is scaling to fit a 6 / 6+ in which case you need to add the proper launch image assets.
