In Xamarin.Forms Application , modifying Status Bar need to edit Info.plist
in iOS solution .
First, Add UIViewControllerBasedStatusBarAppearance
to file :
<key>UIViewControllerBasedStatusBarAppearance</key>
<false/>
//Follow can change text color of status bar
//<key>UIStatusBarStyle</key>
//<string>UIStatusBarStyleDarkContent</string>
Second, in Xamarin.iOS project , you can modify statsbar background in AppDelegate.cs
as follow :
public override void OnActivated(UIApplication uiApplication)
{
if (UIDevice.CurrentDevice.CheckSystemVersion(13, 0))
{
// If VS has updated to the latest version , you can use StatusBarManager , else use the first line code
// UIView statusBar = new UIView(UIApplication.SharedApplication.StatusBarFrame);
UIView statusBar = new UIView(UIApplication.SharedApplication.KeyWindow.WindowScene.StatusBarManager.StatusBarFrame);
statusBar.BackgroundColor = UIColor.Red;
statusBar.TintColor = UIColor.White;
UIApplication.SharedApplication.KeyWindow.AddSubview(statusBar);
}
else
{
UIView statusBar = UIApplication.SharedApplication.ValueForKey(new NSString("statusBar")) as UIView;
if (statusBar.RespondsToSelector(new ObjCRuntime.Selector("setBackgroundColor:")))
{
statusBar.BackgroundColor = UIColor.Red;
statusBar.TintColor = UIColor.White;
UIApplication.SharedApplication.StatusBarStyle = UIStatusBarStyle.BlackOpaque;
}
}
base.OnActivated(uiApplication);
}
