You can Approach this in two ways

Option 1.Try this in didFinishLaunchingWithOptions Method

func application(_ application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplicationLaunchOptionsKey: Any]?) -> Bool {

    UIApplication.shared.isStatusBarHidden = true

    return true
}

Option 2. overrideprefersStatusBarHidden function in your UIViewController

override var prefersStatusBarHidden : Bool {
    return true
}

Note: you call override func prefersStatusBarHidden it should be override var prefersStatusBarHidden

In swift 3 use this,

override var prefersStatusBarHidden: Bool {  
    return true  
}

override prefersStatusBarHidden in your view controller

override var prefersStatusBarHidden : Bool {
        return true
    }

true if the status bar should be hidden or false if it should be shown.
