Q: Status Bar Disappears after iOS 9.3.2 upgrade

Try a simple Reset: hold down the Home and Power buttons until you see the Apple logo (10-20 seconds).

If this doesn't help, you might need to Restore your iPhone.

Follow the 3R's- if a restart does not solve your problem proceed

User troubleshooting is:

1. restart, ie power off/on,

2. reset  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1430,

3. restore from backup, restore as new device. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414

It's been happening to me, as well.  It used to happen more frequently during late-night hours, but now it's also happened a couple of times during the day.

I'm wondering if the status bar might technically be there, just colored black.  So black text on black background = doesn't show up.

Whatever is happening, Apple needs to get its act together.

The status bar also comes back simply by launching and quitting any app.

Right now the issue hasn't been enough of a nuisance that I would consider Step 3, but thank you for providing the info nonetheless.

It's happening max. three times a day, at least in my case.

Doesn't mean I don't want Apple to fix it, though!

even i restore still have the same problem missing status bar off and on

It's been happening to me, as well. And it still appears after updating iOS 9.3.3.

I Have this exact problem. It only disappears every once in a while, maybe once every couple days. it comes right back up when I lock and unlock my 6s. I'm going to try some different things to see if I can fix it. If anyone find out the answer, please reply to this, thank you!

I too have the exact same problem, i took the iphone 6s to apple store and they replaced the phone for me ( phone was ust two weeks old ) and while I was waiting for my other iphone screen to be changed, the replaced phone also gave the exact problem where the menu disappears and comes back after couple of operations.

This is what I can assume the problem is.

1. purely a bug which apple needs to fix , 9.3.2 and 9.3.3 gives me the same problem

2. could be a profile or apple id issue

Hopefully apple fixes this soon as its a little annoying

Tried all the above steps with no success.  Even a phone replacement did not help in my case.

Thanks for the info. Hopefully iOS 10 will solve the problem.
