Answer 1

In Info.plist, if added the Boolean Property UIViewControllerBasedStatusBarAppearance and set its value to False

UIViewControllerBasedStatusBarAppearance

And you can change StatusBar TextColor by follow way :

UIApplication.SharedApplication.SetStatusBarStyle(UIStatusBarStyle.LightContent, true);

In addition , this method should be invoked after View loaded totally . From IOS 13 ,Apple separates the UI from the Controller, which may affect the appearance of the PreferredStatusBarStyle in the Controller. Before this problem is handled, you can use UIApplication.SharedApplication.StatusBarStyle to set it.
