(OneUi Beta 4) Immersive mode is back

Posted: 03 Nov 2021 11:05 AM PDT

So today, I just found out that a beloved feature I was missing is back: immersive mode. I can choose which apps to ignore the camera cutout and be shown full screen. The status bar can be shown for a few seconds by swiping down from the too of the screen. Thought this might interest users of other platforms as well (for using the phones completely in full screen and to prevent burn in for example).
