title: How to hide the status bar programmatically in iOS 7?
body: <p>In <a href="/questions/tagged/ios7" class="post-tag" title="show questions tagged &#39;ios7&#39;" rel="tag">ios7</a>, how can I hide the <a href="/questions/tagged/statusbar" class="post-tag" title="show questions tagged &#39;statusbar&#39;" rel="tag">statusbar</a> programmatically? I am using <code>XCode 4.6.1</code> (<a href="/questions/tagged/ios6.1" class="post-tag" title="show questions tagged &#39;ios6.1&#39;" rel="tag">ios6.1</a>) and I want to implement this in XCode itself.</p>
