How to change status bar color of a specific view in SwiftUI App Life Cycle?

I tried the solutions here: SwiftUI: Set Status Bar Color For a Specific View and here: SwiftUI: Set Status Bar Color For a Specific View

Both of these solutions utilize SceneDelegate, which obviously doesn't exist in SwiftUI 2/3. Ideally, I'd like the color to change for a specific view. It could be a modifier as they show in those posts or it could be based on a value I have in a Swift class that I call AppState:

class AppState: NSObject, ObservableObject {
  @Published var currentScreen: Screens = .view1
}

enum Screens {
  case view1
  case view2
  case view3
}

I'd like to make 'view2' in this case have a white status bar, not sure how to do this though--any help is much appreciated!

Update:

In my code, I have a Stack with a Color.black that has the .edgesIgnoringSafeArea(.all) property on this specific view but no others so I need to make the text white in this view, but black in the others...

You can change the preferredColorScheme but this changes the whole scheme for the View not just the status bar. Fonts and backgrounds will switch too.

struct CustomStatusBarView: View {
    @StateObject var appState: AppState = AppState()
    var body: some View {
        ZStack{
            Color.gray.ignoresSafeArea()
            VStack{
                switch appState.currentScreen{
                    
                case .view1:
                    Text("view 1")
                case .view2:
                    Text("view 1").preferredColorScheme(.dark)
                case .view3:
                    Text("view 1")
                }
                Button("change view", action: {
                    appState.currentScreen = Screens.allCases.randomElement()!
                })
            }
        }
    }
}
