Encrypting both in the device and in LC server makes sense in case you have literals in variables you do want to protect. Typically arrays are continuous memroy areas that can be hacked into. There are different needs for different types of applications to protect contents. All data and process

The status bar seems to be doing the right things. I have both Xcode 4.6 and 5.0 added in my mobile preferences, and can use either simulator. The visibility seems to work, and the only oddity is that black opaque is still see-through on iOS 7. But then that might be correct.
