Why does the launch screen view get misaligned in iOS 8 when running the app with an enlarged status bar? See the attached image for details:

  • The launch screen view seems to be cropped/resized from bottom by 20 pixels
  • The Home screen background shows underneath (the red arrow)

enter image description here
The LaunchScreen.xib has auto layout enabled and Info.plist has the following settings:

  • Status bar is initially hidden: NO
  • View controller-based status bar appearance: NO
  • Status bar style: UIStatusBarStyleLightContent

I'm using Xcode 6.3.1 (6D1002) and running the application in iPhone 6 with iOS 8.3.

  • sometimes 'clean project (also delete app from device)' fixes things like this. You can delete and add view too. – kocakmstf May 08 '15 at 11:24
  • Did you added the launch image with proper dimensions? Look here if you miss that http://stackoverflow.com/questions/25926661/how-do-i-create-launch-images-for-iphone-6-6-plus-landscape-only-apps – Retro May 08 '15 at 11:29
  • I'm not using a launch image, I'm using `LaunchScreen.xib` for creating the Launch Screen. – Markus Rautopuro May 08 '15 at 11:31
  • I deleted the app from the device, ran `clean`, but the result is the same. I'll try deleting the .XIB and recreating it. – Markus Rautopuro May 08 '15 at 11:31
  • I feel like this is a bug, I've seen this in my app and multiple other apps. I've noticed it a bit different though, there it seems to cut the image in the middle and bump the top half down.. I haven't looked into it but wanted to post in case it's a bug. – JDM May 08 '15 at 12:46
  • Still haven't figured out this - present in iOS 8.4 also. – Markus Rautopuro Jul 30 '15 at 08:47
  • Any new info here ? – Petar Mar 17 '17 at 12:16
