iOS 7 - Status bar overlaps the view

Question

I have a ViewController which is inside a UINavigationcontroller  but the navigationBar is hidden  When I run the app on iOS 7  the status bar shows on top of my view  Is there a way to avoid this   I don t want to write any OS specific code     I tried setting View controller-based status bar appearance to NO  but it did not fix the issue

This is the default behaviour for UIViewController on iOS nbsp 7  The view will be full-screen which means the status bar will cover the top of your view   If you have a UIViewController within a UINavigationController and the navigationBar is visible  you can have the following code in your viewDidLoad or have a background image for navigationBar do the trick   self edgesForExtendedLayout   UIRectEdgeNone    If you have navigationBar hidden  then you have to adjust all the UIView elements by shifting 20 points  I dont t see any other solution  Use auto layout will help a little bit   Here is the sample code for detecting the iOS version  if you want to backward compatibility   NSUInteger DeviceSystemMajorVersion         static NSUInteger  deviceSystemMajorVersion   -1      static dispatch once t onceToken       dispatch once  amp onceToken             NSString  systemVersion    UIDevice currentDevice  systemVersion           deviceSystemMajorVersion     systemVersion componentsSeparatedByString       0  intValue               return  deviceSystemMajorVersion

If using xibs  a very easy implementation is to encapsulate all subviews inside a container view with resizing flags  which you ll already be using for 3 5  and 4  compatibility  so that the view hierarchy looks something like this    and then in viewDidLoad  do something like this   -  void viewDidLoad      super viewDidLoad        initializations   if SYSTEM VERSION GREATER THAN OR EQUAL TO   7 0       only for iOS 7 and above         CGRect frame   containerView frame      frame origin y    20      frame size height -  20      containerView frame   frame          This way  the nibs need not be modified for iOS 7 compatibility  If you have a background  it can be kept outside containerView and let it cover the whole screen

If you simply do NOT want any status bar at all  you need to update your plist with this data  To do this  in the plist  add those 2 settings    lt key gt UIStatusBarHidden lt  key gt   lt true  gt   lt key gt UIViewControllerBasedStatusBarAppearance lt  key gt   lt false  gt    In iOS 7 you are expected to design your app with an overlaid transparent status bar in mind  See the new iOS 7 Weather app for example

Xcode 5 has iOS 6 7 Deltas which is specifically made to resolve this issue  In the storyboard  I moved my views 20 pixels down to look right on iOS nbsp 7 and in order to make it iOS nbsp 6 compatible  I changed Delta y to -20     Since my storyboard is not using auto-layout  in order to resize the height of views properly on iOS nbsp 6 I had to set Delta height as well as Delta Y
