After upgrading to iOS 11 / Xcode9, the status bar is not longer being hidden.
I have "View Controller-Based Status Bar Appearance" set to "YES" in info.plist, and also:
override var prefersStatusBarHidden: Bool {
return true
}
According to the debugger, prefersStatusBarHidden is called, but is not having any effect.
Is this a bug? Does anyone know of a solution?
