Color StatusBar with launch screen

ganesh96

Hi,

I have a Xamarin.Forms app, but this question is specifically for iOS.

I wanted to change the statusbar icons color for my app on iOS to white, so I edited App.xaml.cs and Info.plist:

So this works.

When I start the app however, a launch screen is shown. The statusbar icons color is still black when this launch screen is shown. The moment the MainPage opens, the statusbar icons turn white.

How can I also change the statusbar icons to white when the launch screen is shown?

Regards, Ganesh

For this, you can check: iOS Tip: Change Status Bar Icon & Text Colors

please add this to your Info.plist (more docs here)

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

For more details, you can review above article.
