Summary:
This is the
0.88-stablecounterpart of #258, which makes the same change onmain.For apps built with the iOS 27 SDK, iOS 27 makes the
UIApplicationstatus bar setters no-ops. react/react-native#58926 changedStatusBarto report its style and visibility through the view controller status bar methods instead. That path only works whenUIViewControllerBasedStatusBarAppearanceisYES.The template still sets it to
NO, soStatusBarhas no effect in new projects built with the iOS 27 SDK. This sets it toYES, which matches the change made tohelloworldand RNTester in react/react-native#58926.Changelog:
[IOS] [CHANGED] - Set
UIViewControllerBasedStatusBarAppearancetotruein the templateInfo.plistTest Plan:
The change is one value in
template/ios/HelloWorld/Info.plist. The template CI jobs build the iOS app from the template.
