Custom status bar in iOS 8

Question

As status bar style called, UIStatusBarStyleBlackOpaque is deprecated in iOS7 and up, what is the alternate for getting the similar status bar? How can we achieve this?

Please help me solve this issue.

Answer 1

According to the documentation:

typedef NS_ENUM(NSInteger, UIStatusBarStyle) {
    UIStatusBarStyleDefault                                     = 0, // Dark content, for use on light backgrounds
    UIStatusBarStyleLightContent     NS_ENUM_AVAILABLE_IOS(7_0) = 1, // Light content, for use on dark backgrounds

    UIStatusBarStyleBlackTranslucent NS_ENUM_DEPRECATED_IOS(2_0, 7_0, "Use UIStatusBarStyleLightContent") = 1,
    UIStatusBarStyleBlackOpaque      NS_ENUM_DEPRECATED_IOS(2_0, 7_0, "Use UIStatusBarStyleLightContent") = 2,
};

Answer 2

From iOS7, all the statusBar is translucent, no statusbar is opaque,no way to do this if you only use statusBar. now we can configure navigationbar opaque to indirectly achieve it. opaque navigationbar + UIStatusBarStyleDefault is what you what.

Hope this help.
