Navigation Bar Issue

Hello, updated to Pie few days ago. Noticed that the navigation bar is "alive". Sometimes it moves more left or more right if I am looking at the home button and compare it to the chrome app. Please fix this bug.

Navigation button doesn't hide after pie update

After pie update my navigation buttons doesn't hide and it really compromises the full screen.. Almost 1cm. I'm really disappointed with that as the screen ratio is already too small for all Sony phones,which is 67 %while all other phones gives 80 - 90 %.... Hope Sony will fix this issue..let navigation buttons stay hide...

Hi,

I updated to Android P today and I'm seeing exactly the same issue. Noticed the home button was off centre to the right and now it's off centre to the left!

Any ideas what the issue is?

Thanks

Looking at it some more, it seems the home button is in a slightly different position every time the phone is unlocked. Bizzare!

Switching the developer option "show layout bounds" shows the issue nicely.

Hi. I'm running Xperia Home 12.0.A.0.13 with Pie 9.0 and you can clearly see that layouts/software keys of main home screen and apps menu are not centered.

And once you see it, you can't unsee it! 🙂

After android 9.0 pie update the navigation bar does't seem to auto hide in apps like Google chrome, Instagram,Etc. But somehow work in youtube or while playing games. This is getting really annoying especially while watching video's at full screen in chrome as the navigation bar doesn't auto hide which reduces display size from the already small display of the xz premium. Am I only facing this issue. If its a bug please fix this sony. Watching video in Google chrome while at full screen

Instagram camera app

It doesn't hide in Oreo either, so I think the no difference.

Or did I miss a setting.

There hasn't been any solution by now, has there? I just updated a couple of days ago and find it super annoying that the nav bar won't hide. Makes the screen way too small ...

Hi, it appears to be some kind of android "feauture" on OLED Devices to prevent burn in of the navbar icons. Someone on Reddit managed to turn it off with root. Besides that it's well... Just a "feature".
