Full screen on some applications.

[reddragon1992]

I have a problem with some applications. They don't want to use full screen. For example Spotify. There is a black bar above navigation bar.
Is this problem related to spotify app or something related to operating system?
Do you have similar problem?

I think that maybe the 18:9 aspect ratio or the resolution perhaps isn't supported by all apps yet. I face the same problem with Ingress, but found a workaround to make the black bar smaller: By hiding the status bar for that specific app you have that issue with, here's a link: (No root needed)

I wrote a post on spotify community page, but no real answers so far. So, we have to be patient.

More apps have this problem..I asked developer of one of them and they said that in the future they plan to support 18:9 apps lol its 2018 already they should have it..

Solution

If you're looking fullscreen + gestures (like in MIUI) you're looking for this app - Fluid Navigation Gestures (search google play store)
It works BETTER than original, allows for customization and forces all "2D" apps to render full screen. Not games though

You'll need adb as well to make that program work
