On many android phones, including Pixels, you cannot remove the navigation bar.
Why can't you remove it? It has no functional use, especially on OLED phones where static elements can lead to burn in.
You can't even hide it. It's just stuck there to remind you how cucked and powerless you are.

Because smartphones are not real general purpose computers and Android is not a real OS.

I've embraced cuckoldry. It's just easier.
Try it. The chair beside the bed in hotel rooms exists for a reason.

Thats because I'm on lineageos which let's you hide it
I had to carefully pick a phone with an unlockable bootloader and that had official support and not just a bunch of pajeet roms on XDA
All for the purpose of hiding this fucking bar

Get a better or different phone if it bothers you do much

>>107692208
Why don't you ask the manufacturers shipping Android without the option to hide it? You know we didn't make these phones. Or is this an impotent baby rage thread?
>>
>>107693141
They're the ones adding it in. Google really wants you to have this stupid fucking bar on your screen at all times
>>
>>107692208
Works on my Samsung.
>>
can you even switch quickly between opened apps (without triggering recent apps menu first) with horizontal swipes without having the bar visible on the screen?
>>
>>107692208
I think you can change it to the classic 3 button version? at least I was able to in mine because I hate gestures
>>
OP is disingenuous faggot as usual.
Stock Poopdroid 16 here.
>>
I guess just >>107693394 and I are swapping it to the original 3 button icon navigation setting? It seems a lot easier and more comfortable, especially when you have apps that have their own gestures.

>>107693521
I can confirm that on certain models it doesn't have that bottom option (or at least, not in that location) Which are you using?
>>
>>107693394
Makes the burn in concern even worse
>>107693521
That is not stock.

>burn in
I don't think that's really an issue even on newest OLEDs, especially on a fucking phone.
>Its a phone, a lot of its time its locked with some degree of frequency or otherwise screen off
>tons of options to limit brightness and use different themes along with time of day or user choice
>refresh rate, color, and other options that automatically prevent work to prevent burn in etc
There's a reason why even where OLEDs ahve been used much longer on phones than on large displays they don't seem to have as many reports of burn in, even 5+ years back- the use is simply not as conducive to it even in the worst conditions. Now maybe if its some chink engagement farm you see pictured where the thing is lit up 24 hours a day at maximum brightness constantly clicking ads and shit but no normal usage is likely to end up with it, much less with built in protections. Hell, I have a LG C2 monitor as my primary display and no burn in.

Here is what it looks like on googles stock pixel
>>
>>107693639
No retard it absolutely is an issue.
Little software tricks and higher pixel density does not change the basic physics of how oled screens work.
If anything a lot of these shitslabs use the screen as a heatsink which makes it even worse.
>>
I use the the 3 buttons. I literally don't care about burn in because I'm using that part of the screen to show the buttons anyway.
