Xamarin Forms TabbedPage showing white space in iOS when removed

Question

I am using a nested TabbedPage within Xamarin Forms but would like to remove this TabbedPage from iOS as I am re-creating it and placing it at the top of the page. I have a custom renderer and inside the ViewDidLoad method I am using this: TabBar.RemoveFromSuperview();

This removes the TabBar but the space it occupied is still there. Does anyone know how to remove this space?

Check out [this answer](https://stackoverflow.com/a/37109477/1506387) on another question. Maybe that helps? It does the magic for you. — Gerald Versluis, Jul 24 '17 at 09:45
I've tried to add HidesBottomBarWhenPushed = True into ViewWillAppear, ViewDidLoad and ViewWillLayoutSubViews but still no luck — Danny Pease, Jul 24 '17 at 10:19

The fix is to remove the Tab bar and then resize the height of it's frame to 0

public override void ViewDidLoad()
{
    base.ViewDidLoad();
    this.TabBar.RemoveFromSuperview();
    this.TabBar.Frame = new CGRect(this.TabBar.Frame.X, 
    this.TabBar.Frame.Y, this.TabBar.Frame.Width, 0);
}
