Status bar disappears after unlocking with SwiftUI

I have an app with Status Bar initially hidden: YES and 

NavigationView {
}
.statusBar(hidden: true)

When the app starts, the bar is not visible but its space is not occupied (so it looks like additional padding from top). But when I lock/unlock the phone this padding disappears thus moving the whole app closer to the top.

Any suggestions what's causing it?

Problem

enter image description here

Just tested it with the following view and it really jumps up after you lock/unlock the screen. Try to take a screenshot and it jumps up as well (found this accidentally when I was taking screenshots for the answer).

struct ContentView: View {
    var body: some View {
        NavigationView {
            Color.green
                .navigationBarTitle("No status bar")
        }
        .statusBar(hidden: true)
    }
}

Workaround

Just add the line marked in the code below.

struct ContentView: View {
    var body: some View {
        NavigationView {
            Color.green
                .navigationBarTitle("No status bar")
        }
        .edgesIgnoringSafeArea(.all) // <-------
        .statusBar(hidden: true)
    }
}

IMHO it should work without this line, but it doesn't apparently. This problem is here even if I set (Info.plist):

  • UIViewControllerBasedStatusBarAppearance to YES
  • UIStatusBarHidden to YES

Or if I hide status bar directly on the ContentView (SceneDelegate):

  • let contentView = ContentView().statusBar(hidden: true)
