Inconsistent behaviour statusBar iOS

[DevMcC]

Problem

I have set the statusBar to always be visible, however, I have had some inconsistent behaviour from an iOS device:

• When I start my app in portrait orientation, the statusBar is visible.
• When I turn it to landscape, the statusBar is hidden, but the statusBar component itself is visible, giving the header a waterhead.

---

• When I start my app in landscape orientation, the statusBar is visible.
• When I turn it to portrait, the statusBar is also visible.

Expected behaviour

The statusBar should always be visible, as I have set it to always be visible.

Additional information

Version: 2.0.2
Platform: iOS (iPhone 6)

Code snippets/examples

I am currently unable to provide a code snippet or an example, but I'll try my best to provide it, if it is needed.

#Note

• I don't know if I am using the right terminology for statusBar, but with that I mean the actual bar of the phone itself, with indicator icons and the current time.
