update, the code works I had entered it in the wrong view controller, would it be possible to completely disable the default Home Indicator and manage the behavior from a custom button in my button toolbar?

thanks for the reply, you are in the right, I speak of the Home indicator, sorry for the bad description. I tried with this objective-c code but the Home Indicator is always present: - (BOOL) prefersHomeIndicatorAutoHidden { return YES; } - (BOOL) swizzledPrefersHomeIndicatorAutoHidden { return YES; }
