7 years ago In fact since ex-navigation is responsible for the entire navigation structure and already has statusBar handling in route.navigationBar, ex-navigation could just ensure the status bar is translucent whenever ex-navigation is mounted whether you're in exponent or vanilla.
As a side note, I also don't like the fact that a hardcoded status bar size is being used instead of StatusBar.currentHeight on Android.
The assumption made in ExNavigationBar.js that "Exponent draws under the status bar on Android, but vanilla React Native does not." isn't true for vanilla React Native on Android when there is a
<StatusBar transparent/>component mounted.
