IOS 7 Status bar keeps appearing

Question

I have used the two methods to remove the status bar ( the one with the time and the signal strength )but it keeps reappearing in my app for IOS 7

I have used the ' hide during application launch ' in GENERAL SETTINGS

I have added the ' status bar is initially hidden' BOOL to YES

I have changed the status bar to NONE in every View Controller

---

The problem occurs when i return after having accessed the IPHONE photo library to import a picture into my APP , and only then , it seems to override any previous entries in the PLIST

Does anyone have any code to permanently disable this status bar so it does not appear?

Thanks

* I have tried all the options listed but still when my app returns from opening and selecting from the photo gallery the status bar re-appears *

Answer 1

You need implement 2 steps for to hide status bar accross your app:

1) didFinishLaunchingWithOptions

- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions
{
    // Override point for customization after application launch.

    [[UIApplication sharedApplication]setStatusBarHidden:YES];

    .......

}

2) And .plist file of your project
