Feature description
Google has enforced edge-to-edge display in Android 15.
If you meet two conditions, edge-to-edge display will be enabled:
- You are using Android 15 or greater.
- You are using an app whose targetSDK is 35 or greater.
For example, if you are using Android 15 or greater and have patched YouTube 19.44.39 or greater, edge-to-edge display will be enabled (YouTube 19.44.39's targetSDK is 35).
edge-to-edge display is intended to provide a better user experience, but there is currently no way to disable it.
For this reason I plan to add a universal patch that disables edge-to-edge display.
Due to structural limitations of the patch, it will not work for ROOT users (those who install patched app via mount).
Motivation
edge-to-edge display is intended to provide a better user experience, but there is currently no way to disable it.
