Is it possible to change the background color of the top bar in iOS 6 with AIR for Mobile or can this only be done in native Objective-C?
What I mean:

I've found a simple and easy solution for this.
Default the status bar style (UIStatusBarStyle) is set to UIStatusBarStyleBlackOpaque.
Just change the value to UIStatusBarStyleBlackTranslucent and set the background color of the SWF to the color you want the status bar to have.
So what I've done is just this:
Added the settings below in the Application descriptor
<key>UIStatusBarStyle</key>
<string>UIStatusBarStyleBlackTranslucent</string>
And changed the SWF background color
[SWF(backgroundColor="#ff6a00")]
Result:
VS
The solution for this in objective-c:
You can change it from, Target Settings -> Summery -> tint of status bar
Or
you can change it back to black from, info.plist -> set value for status bar style as opaque black style.

When I am using window background transparency in my app made for MacOS, when the system is switching from light to dark, or back, the colour change does not work.
This is how I change the transparency on the window background.
self.view.window?.backgroundColor = NSColor(named: "BackgroundColor")!.withAlphaComponent(WindowTransparency)
With the above code when I change the style from light to dark, it do not change.
When I am changing the code to
self.view.window?.backgroundColor = NSColor(named: "BackgroundColor")!
than the result is expected. With the system notification I call this line and it is perfectly changing the background color.
What can be the problem?
I have read the other posts about the UINavigationBar's Prompt not following the color values of the actual Title. Most of the posts are from the iOS 11 era, and the solutions no longer work on iOS 13.
These are examples of previous posts that no longer have working solutions:
Can't change UINavigationBar prompt color
Change font of prompt in UINavigationController
iPhone: Possible to change the color of just the prompt of the UINavigationBar?
Has anyone else encountered this?
I would suggest the following:
Check that the device is not running in Dark Mode.
Verify that the background-color was not modified anywhere in the code.
Make sure that the style is set to default like in the screenshot below:
I've received a screenshot from my app by an older lady who seems to have activated "Bold text" in her iPhone settings.
Since I've never really looked at that before and my app does not support dynamic text (which seems to not be related) I was surprised to see that in this mode the tint colors I gave my bar button items are being ignored and they'll always show in standard iOS Nav bar button blue, this line of code does not have an effect anymore:
myBarButtonItem.tintColor = myColor
In my case the color indicates their state so that's a dealbreaker.
I know that I could detect whether the user has activated this setting (as indicated in the answer here Possible to detect Bold Text setting in Settings > Accessibility? ) and indicate the state by using different icons...
But is there any way around this and keep my tint colors in bold text mode?
Try with appearance
UIBarButtonItem.appearance().tintColor = yourcolor
I'm a beginner with iOS app development and want to customize the Status Bar colour. I have set my scene to a dark background and I want to battery and time in the Status Bar to match the colour.
At the moment I have added
var navigationBarAppearace = UINavigationBar.appearance()
UIApplication.shared.statusBarStyle = .lightContent
in AppDelegate.swift
Is there a way to add a custom hex colour for the text, not background?
I'm afraid there isn't without accessing private API's, which will get your app declined from apple review.
It's best to just find a way to make your app design work with the given, white or black status bar style.
The one thing you could do is create your own status bar that imitated the UIStatusBar, with your own labels and icons, but that would be a reasonable amount of hassle.
I've got a little bit of an issue with the status bar for iOS7, iPhone 4 and up.
Since my app's background is dark, I need the status bar to be white, which looks fine.
However, when minimizing the app, waiting a few seconds and going back into the app, it slightly flashes from full white to darker white back to full white within a period of less than half a second.
You can reproduce this by simply creating an empty new XCode project, setting the statusbar to white (see below how I did that), then running the app on simulator or device, minimizing it and maximizing it again.
Things tried:
UIViewController-based appearance with:
- (UIStatusBarStyle)preferredStatusBarStyle
{
return UIStatusBarStyleLightContent;
}
and
- (UIStatusBarAnimation)preferredStatusBarUpdateAnimation {
return UIStatusBarAnimationNone;
}
And view controller-based status bar appearance set to NO in the PLIST, with also:
Transparent black style (alpha of 0.5)
Status bar is initially hidden set to NO in both situations.
Is this something out of my programmatic control?
I had the same issue and solved it by setting on the info.plist file the following values, on iOS 10*:
Status bar style = UIStatusBarStyleLightContent
View controller-based status bar appearance = NO
If you prefer directly in your Info.plist:
<key>UIStatusBarStyle</key>
<string>UIStatusBarStyleLightContent</string>
<key>UIViewControllerBasedStatusBarAppearance</key>
<false/>
