How do you make the status bar appear iOS

Question

This is getting very frustrating for me because I can't get the status bar to appear in my app. Everything related as far as UI is done on storyboard. when i set my status bar:inferred, top bar: inferred in my navigation controller, the status bar shows up fine. However, I do not want the top bar to appear as it interferes with my layout, so I set the top bar to none, which results in no top bar or status bar.

How can I just make the status visible without affecting my layout? (auto-layout is enabled)

I'm confused. Are you trying to show the status bar, but hide the navigation bar? — Aaron Brager, Mar 04 '14 at 00:17
Did you try returning `NO` from `prefersStatusBarHidden` in your `UIViewController`? — i_am_jorf, Mar 04 '14 at 00:33

So I did more googling and research, turns out I just had to add View controller-based status bar appearance as the key and the value as NO in the .plist file
