In the app, I set the brand color for the background.
So I want to change the color of the status bar to white, but on other pages I want to be able to change the color automatically.
How can I implement it in SwiftUI?

Since SwiftUI does not expose navigation styling directly, you'll need a workaround using UINavigationController.
For first declare a struct that ability you to change navigation styling:

Code Block swiftstruct NavigationConfigurator: UIViewControllerRepresentable {
		var configure: (UINavigationController) -> Void = { _ in }
		func makeUIViewController(context: UIViewControllerRepresentableContext<NavigationConfigurator>) -> UIViewController {
				UIViewController()
		}
		func updateUIViewController(_ uiViewController: UIViewController, context: UIViewControllerRepresentableContext<NavigationConfigurator>) {
				if let nc = uiViewController.navigationController {
						self.configure(nc)
				}
		}
}

Then, you can call this like:

Code Block swiftstruct ContentView: View {
		var body: some View {
				NavigationView {
						ScrollView {
								Text("Hello world!")
						}
						.navigationBarTitle("Try it!", displayMode: .inline)
						.background(NavigationConfigurator { nc in
								nc.navigationBar.barTintColor = .blue
								nc.navigationBar.titleTextAttributes = [.foregroundColor : UIColor.white]
						})
				}
		.navigationViewStyle(StackNavigationViewStyle())
		}
}
