I've been researching everywhere I can, and I have found nothing. I am trying to find a way so that my alert that occurs within my app can drop down but cover the status bar elements (wifi, time, etc). I'm at a loss and was curious if anyone knew how.

In UIKit, you can call

override var prefersStatusBarHidden: Bool {
    return true
}

In SwiftUI, equivalent by calingl the modifier:

struct ContentView: View {
    var body: some View {
        Text("Hello, World!")
            .statusBar(hidden: true)
    }
}
