UIApplication.sharedApplication().setStatusBarStyle() deprecated in iOS 9

In Swift 3 is like that:

 UIApplication.shared.statusBarStyle = .lightContent

In swift 3.

In your view controller:

override var preferredStatusBarStyle: UIStatusBarStyle {
    return UIStatusBarStyle.lightContent
}

If you wish when the app run your launch screen also has the status bar in lightContent then:

I think I have found a solution. I ended up setting the

View controller-based status bar appearance boolean to NO

In my info.plist file.

Info.Plist

Then I went to my target's General settings -> Deployment info and changed the dropdown option Status Bar Style to Light instead of Default

Change Status Bar Style to Light

This changed the statusbar style to Light for my whole application, just what I wanted.

I Hope this helps!
