Moving status bar in iOS 7

Question

The problem I\'m facing is this:

I want to implement an iOS 7 app with nice design and left/right menu, which appears after the main view animate itself to the righ

Answer 1

The gist of it is to use this method introduced in iOS 7:

https://developer.apple.com/documentation/uikit/uiscreen/1617814-snapshotview:

With that you get a UIView containing a screenshot that includes the status bar. Once you have that, it's just a matter of hiding your current view then pushing the screenshot view around.

I posted a proof of concept here: https://github.com/simonholroyd/StatusBarTest

NOTE I haven't submitted code that does this through the Apple review process, but this is not a private API method.
