Question

How to hide the Android Status Bar in a Flutter App?

Answer 1

This comment from Jonah Williams might be helpful in some situations as well https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/24472#issuecomment-440015464 if you don't want the status bar color be overridden by the AppBar.

You cannot provide a status bar color to the app bar, but you can create your own annotated region. It's not very intuitive right now, but you can use sized: false to override the child annotated region created by the app bar.

Somewhere, perhaps as a child of the scaffold:

Scaffold(
  body: AnnotatedRegion(
    value: const SystemUiOverlayStyle(...),
    sized: false,
    child: ...
  )
);

Note that not all Android versions support status bar color or icon brightness. See the documentation on SystemUiOverlayStyle for the caveats.
