Hiding the status bar on all pages in a Windows Phone 8.1 App

I can hide the status bar on each page but is there an easier way to do this in one place?

You can hide it in the App.xaml.cs in the OnLaunched event handler. In order to avoid adding async to the OnLaunched method, you can use Wait() method of Task:

StatusBar statusBar = Windows.UI.ViewManagement.StatusBar.GetForCurrentView();

// Hide the status bar
Task hidingStatusBarTask = statusBar.HideAsync();
hidingStatusBarTask.Wait();

Go in you App.xaml.cs file and in the OnLaunched add this

StatusBar statusBar = Windows.UI.ViewManagement.StatusBar.GetForCurrentView();

// Hide the status bar
await statusBar.HideAsync();
