how do I properly change my status bar style in swift 2/ iOS 9?
I always did this way.
class ViewController: UIViewController { override func viewDidLoad() { super.viewDidLoad() // Do any additional setup after loading the view, typically from a nib. } //Changing Status Bar override func preferredStatusBarStyle() -> UIStatusBarStyle { //LightContent return UIStatusBarStyle.LightContent //Default //return UIStatusBarStyle.Default }}It works in any swift 2.x version. This requires that you set View controller-based status bar appearance in your Info.plist file to YES.
