Answer 1

you should override the method,

-(BOOL)prefersStatusBarHidden{
    return YES;
}

in every viewcontroller if you have not making setting in info.plist for hiding it.

if you want to manage in info.plist then,

<key>UIStatusBarHidden</key>
<true/>
<key>UIViewControllerBasedStatusBarAppearance</key>
<false/>

You can check the screenshot below

Objective C:

- (BOOL)prefersStatusBarHidden{
 return YES;
}

Swift 4:

override var prefersStatusBarHidden: Bool {
 return true
}

I have the same question, and I have set info.plist with what Charlie Fish showed, but it's not help.

I fixed by changing TARGETS->Deployment info->Devices to iPad, then run Xcode.
