Github user shazron commented on the pull request: https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-statusbar/pull/15#issuecomment-57029693 I just tried it on Xcode 6.0.1 (8.0 SDK) on all devices available, and Xcode 5.1.1 (7.1 SDK) on all devices available. This issue is fixed. I created a new project and installed the statusbar plugin from the registry, and set the pref to false. Turned on all orientations and tested orientation change by rotating it. Not sure what's going on with your setup. Try with the project I used: https://github.com/shazron/StatusBarTest
