Cannot hide status bar in iOS7

Add method in your view controller.

- (BOOL)prefersStatusBarHidden {
    return YES;
}

in your apps plist file add a row call it "View controller-based status bar appearance" and set it to NO

Note that this simply does not work, if you are using UIImagePickerController in the app.
