How to hide and show the status bar
Updated for Xcode 14.0 beta 1
We can hide and show the iOS status bar using SwiftUI’s statusBar() modifier. This takes one hidden parameter that must be either true or false, depending the behavior you want:
Text("No status bar, please")
.statusBar(hidden: true)Important: This modifier is available only on iOS.
If you want status bar visibility to be dependent on some program state, use an @State Boolean in place of a hard-coded value. For example, this creates a hideStatusBar Boolean that gets toggled when a button is tapped, which in turn controls whether the status bar is showing or not:
struct ContentView: View {
@State private var hideStatusBar = false
var body: some View {
Button("Toggle Status Bar") {
withAnimation {
hideStatusBar.toggle()
}
}
.statusBar(hidden: hideStatusBar)
}
}As you can see, that toggles the Boolean inside a withAnimation block, which causes the status bar to fade in and out smoothly.
