Using xCode 5.1 simulator iOS7.1 I have tried this: in the info.plist added a few rows, cleaned and re-run. UIStatusBarHidden = YES UIViewControllerBasedStatusBarAppearance = NO Didnt change a thing Watched this video <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vZW0vblbixA" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vZW0vblbixA</a> suggesting other names on the rows: View controller-based status bar = NO Status bar is initially hidden = Yes Still no luck Could it be a pr screen setting that overrides this? I really don't want the status bar to be visible on any screen in the app. Title Comments I have been struggling with this one for a couple of days now and wonder if someone could help.

I was just thinking that the reason I cant get this to work was perhaps that the global setting telling the app to hide the status bar was somehow overridden by settings on the individual screens. But I have never found an option for this on screen level, so it is probably not the case. While the video you referred to refers to adding keys: View controller-based status bar Status bar is initially hidden Another post uses different key names: UIStatusBarHidden UIViewControllerBasedStatusBarAppearance (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/12661031/how-to-hide-a-status-bar-in-ios) I am confused :) Comments Testing both on a real iPhone 4s as well as a simulator.
