I am trying to hide the statusbar but maintain the "bigger" navigationbar height. Right now when I hide the statusbar by setting `- (BOOL)prefersStatusBarHidden` to `YES` and then calling `[self setNeedsStatusBarAppearanceUpdate];`. The problem with this is that the navigationbar will slide up and won't leave space for the notification I'm trying to show. Simply adding a view over the statusbar is not an option, our statusbar/navigation has the fancy blur effect. Does anyone have a clue how to maintain the standard navigationbar height with the status bar height and remove the statusbar from that?

Edit; what I ended up doing is taking a risk and getting the UIWindow of the statusbar via a private API and offsetting that.

Edit 2; App got approved with the private API. Be cautious though!
