Hide iPhone Status Bar (UIStatusBar) In Xcode

Hide the iPhone Status Bar (UIStatusBar) for full screen applications you are building using this method.

Find Info.plist File

Open up your Xcode Project & find “Info.plist” file from the left side under Groups & Files (By default, Info.plist is listed under “Resources” group)

Add A New Row

Select any row (I prefer the last row, but yours can be different) & click the “+” button that appears to the right to add a new row

Enter A New Key & Value

Type “UIStatusBarHidden” (without the quotes) for the Key field and hit enter. Now right click the Value field, from the drop down menu go to “Value Type” and select “Boolean”

Build & Go

Click the check mark box and build your project and you are done
