Cannot change style of status bar

I have a navigation bar implemented in my iOS App and I set the tint-color to white but when running the app, the status bar does not follow the tint-color and is just transparent (see image). I'm aiming for the status bar to have the translucent style to it.

How to fix this?

To change the the status bar color in all the Viewcontrollers, add this to your info.plist

<key>UIStatusBarStyle</key>
<string>UIStatusBarStyleLightContent</string>
<key>UIViewControllerBasedStatusBarAppearance</key>
<false/>

then clean and run the build.

For setting status bar color specific to ViewControllers add the following in the info.plist

<key>UIViewControllerBasedStatusBarAppearance</key>
<true/>

And in the viewDidLoad method of ViewController call this method :

[self setNeedsStatusBarAppearanceUpdate];

And the add the following method in ViewController :

- (UIStatusBarStyle)preferredStatusBarStyle
{ 
    return UIStatusBarStyleLightContent; 
}

Cheers :]

Try this

- (UIStatusBarStyle) preferredStatusBarStyle { 
        return UIStatusBarStyleLightContent; 
   }
