Swift 3.0

Just set View controller-based status bar appearance == NO in to your *.plist and put below code in your appdelegate class in didFinishLaunchingWithOptions method before return.

let statusBar: UIView = UIApplication.shared.value(forKey: "statusBar") as! UIView
if statusBar.responds(to:#selector(setter: UIView.backgroundColor)) {
    statusBar.backgroundColor = UIColor.red
}
UIApplication.shared.statusBarStyle = .lightContent

You can change backgroundColor and statusBarStyle as per your requirement.
