I have added a custom view in AppDelegate keyWindow of status bar frame. Before iOS 13, touchbegan was getting called, using which was comparing touch location with the status bar coordinates.

I have searched a lot but couldn't find any thing why touchbegain stopped getting called.

I also tried by hiding the status bar in iOS 13 and than adding subview of status bar frame, this way touchbegan is getting called, but view is getting upside when I hide status bar.

If anyone has any solution for this, kindly post your response.

    iOS has the option to make the app fullscreen. There is no need of replacing the statusBar with your view. Just make your app fullscreen. – mutAnT Jan 08 '20 at 05:50
  • This is the requirement for my app to add a custom view for a specific scenario. And I have to identify the click event on that custom view which I was doing with touchbegan method by overriding that into AppDelegate. But from iOS 13, touchbegan stopped getting called for status bar location only i.e. CGRect(0,0,ScreenWidth,20) – user7424029 Jan 08 '20 at 11:56

Try use this code in the AppDelegate.swift

override func touchesBegan(_ touches: Set<UITouch>, with event: UIEvent?) {
    super.touchesBegan(touches, with: event)

    let statusBarRect = UIApplication.shared.statusBarFrame
    guard let touchPoint = event?.allTouches?.first?.location(in: self.window) else { return }

    if statusBarRect.contains(touchPoint) {
      // tap on statusbar, do something
    }
}

  • In last update of xcode delete some frameworks between them UIKit, go to your target>General in Frameworks add UIKit if you don't have it added. import UIKit to AppDelegate.swift – Edwin Rivas Jan 22 '20 at 16:14
