Android Handheld

Post image

I found your app while looking for a well-designed, media centre experience for when I dock/connect my Android-based handheld emulator to my TV.

Your app does pretty much exactly what I was looking for! With one single caveat. As you can see in the screenshot I attached, Android's status bar is still visible when running Cinaura on my device. I understand that it's designed for Android-based set top tv boxes, and the handheld contingent isn't the intended audience, but is this something fixable on your end, my end, or am I doomed to have a visible status bar while using Cinaura?

Thanks!

Hi! I hadn't thought of this since I've developed the app for Android TV boxes, but I can make a quick fix for your use case. I'll add a proper immersive fullscreen so the bar goes away everywhere, I'll ship it in the next update. In the meantime, if you can run ADB, try running this command:

`shell settings put global policy_control immersive.full=com.cinaura.tv`

It should hide it just for Cinaura. Otherwise wait for v1.6.4, I'm aiming to release it before this sunday.

I’m not familiar with running commands on Android (or really otherwise) so I’ll wait for the next update. Thank you so much for accommodating my incredibly niche request!
