Hi all,

I have a problem with status bar.  
I’ve set it with

```auto
<preference name="StatusBarOverlaysWebView" value="false" />

```

and

```auto
platforms: {
    ios: {
        statusbarPadding: false
    }
}

```

On the homepage at loading it render nicely, being above the webview, but when navigating, the statusbar doesn’t stay outside of the webview and overlap the navbar. By the way, the toast stay behind it after that.

So after some reseach i found out that the pluging `cordova-plugin-smartadd` make that s\*\*\*t append. Don’t know why and how, but it push the webview behind the statusbar.  
I’ve tried many things and at this point i have no idea how to have an overlapping status bar with background color.

Please help me
