SwiftUI: Status bar color

The status bar text/tint/foreground color can be set to white by setting the View‘s .dark or .light mode color scheme using .preferredColorScheme(_ colorScheme: ColorScheme?).

The first view in your hierarchy that uses this method will take precedence.

For example:

var body: some View {
  ZStack { ... }
  .preferredColorScheme(.dark) // white tint on status bar
}

var body: some View {
  ZStack { ... }
  .preferredColorScheme(.light) // black tint on status bar
}
