iOS TableViewController set statusbar color

Question

Is there any way to set statusbar lightcontent color to a UITableViewController?

Looks like there is no function

override open var preferredStatusBarStyle: UIStatusBarStyle{
        return UIStatusBarStyle.lightContent
    }

in UITableViewController

No, there's no way to specify the color of the items in the status bar. — EmilioPelaez, Nov 30 '17 at 15:08

Adding barStyle to black fixed the problem

self.navigationController?.navigationBar.barStyle = .black

If you use Navigation Bar

Try this

override func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()
    navigationController?.navigationBar.barTintColor = UIColor.green
}

If you don't use Navigation Bar only change color Background view

override func viewDidLoad() {
            super.viewDidLoad()
        view.backgroundColor = UIColor.green
    }
