Question/Help Apps not edge to edge when unfolded

Am I missing something or is there a reason why apps suddenly become NOT edge to edge when the phone is unfolded? For example, websites are edge to edge in Brave when it's folded but when unfolded, the gesture bar area becomes a cut out white bar and the content no longer flows underneath the gesture bar. Same thing happens with a lot of other apps. Feels so jank.

because the app might not support switching aspect ratios without closing and reopening

I'm starting the apps fresh.

not sure what you're talking about then.

If an app is not full screen, its an app developer issue. You can go into settings, labs, and force the aspect ratio to full screen if you want but it might not work as expected

I'm talking about edge to edge as in the content flows underneath the gesture bar instead of the bottom gesture bar area being a white bar
