📄 How to create a blurry status bar for PWAs on iOS

Read Original

This article provides a detailed, step-by-step tutorial for developers on how to create a blurry, translucent status bar for Progressive Web Apps (PWAs) installed on iOS. It explains the necessary HTML meta tags and demonstrates the CSS code using `backdrop-filter: blur()`, `env(safe-area-inset-top)`, and a `mask` with a linear-gradient to achieve a smooth, native-looking effect that mimics iOS apps like Maps.
