这是我解决这个问题的方法。

定义一个名为AGViewControllerAppearance的协议。

AGViewControllerAppearance.h

#import <Foundation/Foundation.h>

@protocol AGViewControllerAppearance <NSObject>

@optional

- (BOOL)showsStatusBar;
- (BOOL)animatesStatusBarVisibility;
- (UIStatusBarStyle)preferredStatusBarStyle;
- (UIStatusBarAnimation)prefferedStatusBarAnimation;

@end

在UIViewController上定义一个名为Upgrade的类别。

UIViewController+Upgrade.h

#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>

@interface UIViewController (Upgrade)

//
//  Replacements
//

- (void)upgradedViewWillAppear:(BOOL)animated;

@end

UIViewController+Upgrade.m

#import "UIViewController+Upgrade.h"

#import <objc/runtime.h>

#import "AGViewControllerAppearance.h" // This is the appearance protocol

@implementation UIViewController (Upgrade)

+ (void)load
{
#pragma clang diagnostic push
#pragma clang diagnostic ignored "-Wselector"
    Method viewWillAppear = class_getInstanceMethod(self, @selector(viewWillAppear:));
#pragma clang diagnostic pop
    Method upgradedViewWillAppear = class_getInstanceMethod(self, @selector(upgradedViewWillAppear:));
    method_exchangeImplementations(viewWillAppear, upgradedViewWillAppear);
}

#pragma mark - Implementation

- (void)upgradedViewWillAppear:(BOOL)animated
{
    //
    //  Call the original message (it may be a little confusing that we're
    //  calling the 'same' method, but we're actually calling the original one :) )
    //

    [self upgradedViewWillAppear:animated];

    //
    //  Implementation
    //

    if ([self conformsToProtocol:@protocol(AGViewControllerAppearance)])
    {
        UIViewController <AGViewControllerAppearance> *viewControllerConformingToAppearance =
        (UIViewController <AGViewControllerAppearance> *)self;

        //
        //  Status bar
        //

        if ([viewControllerConformingToAppearance respondsToSelector:@selector(preferredStatusBarStyle)])
        {
            BOOL shouldAnimate = YES;

            if ([viewControllerConformingToAppearance respondsToSelector:@selector(animatesStatusBarVisibility)])
            {
                shouldAnimate = [viewControllerConformingToAppearance animatesStatusBarVisibility];
            }

            [[UIApplication sharedApplication] setStatusBarStyle:[viewControllerConformingToAppearance preferredStatusBarStyle]
                                                        animated:shouldAnimate];
        }

        if ([viewControllerConformingToAppearance respondsToSelector:@selector(showsStatusBar)])
        {
            UIStatusBarAnimation animation = UIStatusBarAnimationSlide;

            if ([viewControllerConformingToAppearance respondsToSelector:@selector(prefferedStatusBarAnimation)])
            {
                animation = [viewControllerConformingToAppearance prefferedStatusBarAnimation];
            }

            [[UIApplication sharedApplication] setStatusBarHidden:(! [viewControllerConformingToAppearance showsStatusBar])
                                                    withAnimation:animation];
        }
    }
}

@end

现在，是时候说你的视图控制器正在实现AGViewControllerAppearance协议。

例子:

@interface XYSampleViewController () <AGViewControllerAppearance>

... the rest of the interface

@end

当然，你可以实现其余的方法(showsStatusBar, animatesStatusBarVisibility, prefereredstatusbaranimation)从协议和UIViewController+升级将做适当的 基于它们提供的值进行定制。

对于任何使用UINavigationController的人:

UINavigationController不会转发preferredStatusBarStyle调用给它的子视图控制器。相反，它管理自己的状态——就像它应该做的那样，它在屏幕顶部绘制状态栏，因此应该对状态栏负责。因此，在导航控制器中实现preferredStatusBarStyle在vc中什么都不会做——它们永远不会被调用。

诀窍是UINavigationController使用什么来决定UIStatusBarStyleDefault或uistatusbarstyelightcontent返回什么。它基于它的UINavigationBar.barStyle。默认的(UIBarStyleDefault)导致前景UIStatusBarStyleDefault状态栏为黑色。UIBarStyleBlack会给出一个uistatusbarstyelightcontent状态栏。

TL; diana:

如果你想在UINavigationController上使用UIStatusBarStyleLightContent:

self.navigationController.navigationBar.barStyle = UIBarStyleBlack;

iOS 7中的UIStatusBarStyle

iOS 7的状态栏是透明的，它后面的视图是透视的。

状态栏的样式是指其内容的外观。在ios7中，状态栏内容要么是暗的(UIStatusBarStyleDefault)，要么是亮的(UIStatusBarStyleLightContent)。uistatusbarstyleblack半透明和UIStatusBarStyleBlackOpaque在iOS 7.0中已弃用。使用UIStatusBarStyleLightContent代替。

如何改变UIStatusBarStyle

如果状态栏下面是一个导航栏，状态栏的样式将被调整以匹配导航栏的样式(UINavigationBar.barStyle):

具体来说，如果导航栏样式是UIBarStyleDefault，状态栏样式将是UIStatusBarStyleDefault;如果导航栏样式是UIBarStyleBlack，状态栏样式将是UIStatusBarStyleLightContent。

如果状态栏下面没有导航栏，状态栏样式可以在应用程序运行时由单个视图控制器控制和更改。

-[UIViewController preferredStatusBarStyle]是ios7新增的方法。它可以被重写以返回首选的状态栏样式:

- (UIStatusBarStyle)preferredStatusBarStyle
  {
      return UIStatusBarStyleLightContent;
  }

如果状态栏样式应该由子视图控制器控制，而不是由self控制，重写-[UIViewController childViewControllerForStatusBarStyle]以返回子视图控制器。

如果你想选择退出这个行为，并通过使用-[UIApplication statusBarStyle]方法设置状态栏样式，添加UIViewControllerBasedStatusBarAppearance键到应用程序的信息。plist文件并给它赋值NO。

Tyson的答案是正确的改变状态栏颜色为白色在UINavigationController。

如果有人想通过在AppDelegate中编写代码来实现相同的结果，那么请使用下面的代码并在AppDelegate的didFinishLaunchingWithOptions方法中编写它。

不要忘记在。plist文件中设置UIViewControllerBasedStatusBarAppearance为YES，否则更改将不会反映。

Code

- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions {
     // status bar appearance code
     [[UINavigationBar appearance] setBarStyle:UIBarStyleBlack];

     return YES;
}

对于任何仍然与此斗争的人来说，这个简单的扩展在swift中应该为您解决这个问题。

extension UINavigationController {
    override open var childForStatusBarStyle: UIViewController? {
        return self.topViewController
    }
}

Swift 4.2及以上版本

正如所选答案中提到的，根本原因是检查您的窗口根视图控制器对象。

流结构的可能情况

Custom UIViewController object is window root view controller Your window root view controller is a UIViewController object and it further adds or removes navigation controller or tabController based on your application flow. This kind of flow is usually used if your app has pre login flow on navigation stack without tabs and post login flow with tabs and possibly every tab further holds navigation controller. TabBarController object is window root view controller This is the flow where window root view controller is tabBarController possibly every tab further holds navigation controller. NavigationController object is window root view controller This is the flow where window root view controller is navigationController. I am not sure if there is any possibility to add tab bar controller or new navigation controller in an existing navigation controller. But if there is such case, we need to pass the status bar style control to the next container. So, I added the same check in UINavigationController extension to find childForStatusBarStyle

使用以下扩展，它处理所有上述场景-

extension UITabBarController {
    open override var childForStatusBarStyle: UIViewController? {
        return selectedViewController?.childForStatusBarStyle ?? selectedViewController
    }
}

extension UINavigationController {
    open override var childForStatusBarStyle: UIViewController? {
        return topViewController?.childForStatusBarStyle ?? topViewController
    }
}

extension AppRootViewController {
    open override var preferredStatusBarStyle: UIStatusBarStyle {
        return children.first { $0.childForStatusBarStyle != nil }?.childForStatusBarStyle?.preferredStatusBarStyle ?? .default
    }
}

在info中你不需要UIViewControllerBasedStatusBarAppearance键。Plist默认为true

对于更复杂的流程，需要考虑的要点

In case you present new flow modally, it detaches from the existing status bar style flow. So, suppose you are presenting a NewFlowUIViewController and then add new navigation or tabBar controller to NewFlowUIViewController, then add extension of NewFlowUIViewController as well to manage further view controller's status bar style. In case you set modalPresentationStyle other than fullScreen while presenting modally, you must set modalPresentationCapturesStatusBarAppearance to true so that presented view controller must receive status bar appearance control.
