Morten Mathiasen commented on CB-4918:
--------------------------------------
To support that you can use the entire screen for your app content, the status
bar needs to be hidden. Otherwise, you will have to design the UI content to
avoid using the top area of the screen. That is waste of valuable screen space,
especially on platforms, e.g. android, that don't show a status bar.
It is a quite easy fix to hide the status bar on iOS 7 too, e.g. from
info-plist:
+ <key>UIViewControllerBasedStatusBarAppearance</key>
+ <false/>
Hiding the status bar must be the right solution for Cordova/PhoneGap that
provides a cross browser solution, that should make it possible to design one
UI and run it on more platforms.
