How to completely hide the status bar in iOS using Cordova?

问题:

I want to have no status bar for the Cordova app I am developing. I am nearly there, the status bar doesn't show on the splash screen. However on the first page that loads you see a flash of the status bar, before it gets hidden.

I have checked the "hide status bar" checkbox in Xcode.

I have added the cordova-plugin-statusbar plugin, and on the deviceready callback, I'm calling StatusBar.hide().

However when the splash image disappears and the first page is being rendered there is a flash of status bar prior to the page being display. It is only for a split second but looks awful.

Anybody know how the status bar can be hidden completely, without flashing up before being hidden?

Although I'm answering this question very late but after one full day of the search, I got this working simply so I would like to share it with others.

According to the docs (and like jcesarmobile answered):

Hiding at startup

During runtime you can use the StatusBar.hide function below, but if you want the StatusBar to be hidden at app startup, you must modify your app's Info.plist file.

Add/edit these two attributes if not present. Set "Status bar is initially hidden" to "YES" and set "View controller-based status bar appearance" to "NO". If you edit it manually without Xcode, the keys and values are:

This requires you to modify your app's info.plist file inside platforms/ios//-Info.plist file to add the following lines:

UIStatusBarHiddenUIViewControllerBasedStatusBarAppearance

But that is not recommended because this will require you to save that change which might get overwritten after build process. So as the clean alternative you should use cordova-custom-config.

According to docs:

Why should I use it?

While some platform preferences can be set via Cordova/Phonegap in the config.xml, many (especially ones related to newer platform releases) cannot. One solution is to manually edit the configuration files in the platforms/ directory, however this is not maintainable across multiple development machines or a CI environment where subsequent build operations may overwrite your changes.

This plugin attempts to address this gap by allowing additional platform-specific preferences to be set after the prepare operation has completed, allowing either preferences set by Cordova to be overridden or other unspecified preferences to be set. Since the custom preferences are entered into the config.xml, they can be committed to version control and therefore applied across multiple development machines, CI environments, and maintained between builds or even if a platform is removed and re-added.

Now, all you have to do is to run the following command for your cordova app:

cordova plugin add cordova-custom-config --save 

And add this to your config.xml file under block:

Please refer cordova-custom-config (version > 5) plugin for more information

Update 1 (20th Feb 2018)

If you are using cordova-custom-config plugin version custom-config-file tag with config-file.

EDIT:

Since Cordova CLI 6.5.0 you can use edit-config tag to write in the info.plist without a plugin. This should hide the statusbar at startup

Check this plugin Status Bar customisation with Cordova

This way worked to me:

On your mac or VM xcode, select TARGETS->Your app

Then on INFO menu, on CUSTOM iOS TARGET PROPERTIES, add this NEW properties:

Statusbar is initially hidden -> Then set the value to YES.

View controller-based status bar appearance -> Then set the value to NO

Build and you should have no statusbar.

I was also having the same problem for android. It was solved by simply calling the below statusBar() function from the 'appCtrl' init() function.

Hope it will work for iOS.

 $rootScope.statusBar = function(){         document.addEventListener("deviceready", onDeviceReady, false); function onDeviceReady() {     //console.log(StatusBar);     StatusBar.hide(); }
