On iOS, this is already true.
On Android, add the following to onCreate
in MainActivity.java
, after the call to super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
.
getWindow().setStatusBarColor(0x00000000);
This will override the default status bar color of 0x40000000
, which is set in the onCreate
method of FlutterActivityDelegate
.

This used to work, but now my file looks like this in Kotlin. How do I get the transparent bar? `import androidx.annotation.NonNull; import io.flutter.embedding.android.FlutterActivity import io.flutter.embedding.engine.FlutterEngine import io.flutter.plugins.GeneratedPluginRegistrant import android.os.Build import android.view.ViewTreeObserver import android.view.WindowManager class MainActivity: FlutterActivity() { override fun configureFlutterEngine(@NonNull flutterEngine: FlutterEngine) { GeneratedPluginRegistrant.registerWith(flutterEngine); } }` – CodeMemory Nov 24 '19 at 04:00

Here is a flutter specific solution. In the build method, you can use the flutter service package.
import 'package:flutter/services.dart';
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
SystemChrome.setSystemUIOverlayStyle(SystemUiOverlayStyle(
statusBarColor: Colors.transparent, //top bar color
statusBarIconBrightness: Brightness.dark, //top bar icons
systemNavigationBarColor: Colors.white, //bottom bar color
systemNavigationBarIconBrightness: Brightness.dark, //bottom bar icons
));
//....
}
