About

Status Bar Control Plus, lets you control the status bar color, style (theme), visibility, and translucent properties across iOS and Android. With some added bonus for Android to control the Navigation Bar.

This plugin is based on React Native's StatusBar component.

The Navigation Bar code was taken from the awesome flutter-screen-theme-plugin.

The plugin was tested with iOS 16 and Android 13 (API 34).
