PhoneGap/Cordova iOS App Full Screen/Hide Status Bar completly

Hi Friends,

When we are working with cross platform application development like PhoneGap/Cordova, we might be facing issue with status bar.

Problem:
Status bar comes on the application though we want to have app in a full screen.

iOS Solution:

• Add the following 2 keys in .plist file

• view controller-based status bar appearance: NO

• status bar is initially hidden : YES

I hope this will help you solving your issue.
