Hello, I cannot open Charts app in immersive (fullscreen) mode on Xiaomi Redmi Pad 2. App always opens with status and navigation bar occupying more than 10% of my screen which leaves less space for charts, while these bars are not needed to use the app.
It is not possible to force app to open in immersive mode by user, because this option was disabled by manufacturer in HyperOS 3. It would only be possible to open app in immersive mode if it is set by the app using Android API.
I believe that Charts was designed to be used as fullscreen app and this problem might be occurring only on some devices, because there were some posts about it on forum. But if it was not designed for fullscreen, it would really help if you added an option to switch to immersive mode or find another solution.
Thanks a lot for improving my experience with this great app.
It seems we haven’t implemented immersive (full-screen) support for the Charts Android app.
There may be a workaround, but it depends on the Android devices. Do you have an option to hide the status bar in your Android settings, such as under Display > Full Screen Apps or in the Control Center/Navigation settings?
Unfortunately, my Redmi Pad 2 running HyperOS 3 (Android 16) does not provide a built-in option to hide the status bar or force individual apps into immersive mode. I even tried to force the app into immersive mode by ADB workaround:
adb shell settings put global policy_control immersive.full=com.navigraph.chartsrn
but it appears that Xiaomi no longer accepts old immersive mode control mechanisms. It seems that the only reliable solution would be for the app itself to support immersive mode. I think this would be a very useful feature especially for those using Charts in landscape orientation on tablet.
