I searched for this but did not find anything..
Is there an app that hides the softkeys? I want the status bar to be visible but the softkeys should be hidden. (I am working with gestures )

You can use Nova launcher to hide status and nav bar. Go to Nova settings > look and feel > and uncheck Show Notification bar. This will auto hide nav bar and status bar.
Have fun!!!!!

First you have to root the device the you install "dynamic navigation bar" (attached) then go to settings and disable system navbar. The DNB is a much better nav bar then thestock one.

Well the same thing happened to me. First off, don't factory reset! I don't know about you, but I don't have adb currently, but my computer is recognizing an unknown android device, which may mean I have driver issues. I ordered the fastboot cable which should be in tomorrow, and I can let you know if that helps me get adb. If it does I can save you 15 bucks and get you the cable somehow if you want.

Hiding the navigation bar?

I've found the option for the notification bar, but I can't seen to find a way to hide the navigation bar. The option for color for ht nav bar doesn't appear to do anything either.
Am I just totally missing how you hide the nav bar? I use pie so I really don't need the softkeys hanging out at the bottom.

Hi,
For now the navigation bar can't be hidden, but its color can be changed in the Advanced Settings menu. What device do you have? As changing it in the Advanced Settings menu should do the trick.

Hi,
It's titled Notification Bar (in the advanced settings), which lets you change both the color of the navigation bar and notification bar. Sorry for the mix up.

XDA Navigation Gestures App

Hi, has anyone tried a new application by XDA? What are your thoughts?
Google Play link - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.xda.nobar
my navigation bar does not hide...
I'm trying it right now. And it's not too bad. Only complaint is you can't change the transparency so that small bar will always be there. But you can change the size and make it really small so it won't be that noticeable.
So far, it seems like a good alternative to All in One Gestures. Will update on battery life later.

Did it hide your navigation bar ?
It won't hide my navigation bar .
Works pretty well
It works pretty well for the most part, though on apps where they are black you can see a white line on the very bottom of the screen. Which is kinda annoying.

If you want hide the stock navigation bar, I find a workaround using immersive mode. You can enable it in nogaut too using an app called "SystemUI Tuner" and giving to it adb permission through a pc (so without root).
I don't like too much this gesture so i return to stock, but if you want this work.

Don't know why but it doesn't ask for root permission (needed in order to hide the navbar), so you need the adb commands, for the rest it works pretty well.

For hide the navbar you can switch the app proportion for the 18: 9 and set the permissions again. After this, turn off the gestures and turn on. If this not work, restart the phone. For me it works.

Can't find the scale option under lg g6 with 8.0.
There are some apps there but no navigation gestures.
I think with Android 7 I had the option. Now I can't find it any more. Can someone assist?
Or is it obsolete with Android 8 ?

Thank you
I love this app.
My battery autonomy is superb and also have more space on the screen.
But the navigation bar doesn't hide automatically, I used SystemUI Tuner from the playstore to hide it.

Hello, when i'm trying to grant permission i only get :"Operation not allowed: java.lang.SecurityException: grantRuntimePermission: Neither user 2000 nor current process has android.permission.GRANT_RUNTIME_PERMISSIONS." what can i do pls ?
I have the porblem that if I open an app lets say, Instagram or Armorfly Browser, the white line at the bottom just dissapears. Then I was swiping up from the bottom to try and get it back or at least the nav bar, after a few tries, the nav bar and the white line for the gestures were showing and dissapearing all the time, it was like they were having a fight for who will stay at the bottom of my screen haha
Does anybody know a fix for that?
Thanks
I'mf facing the following problem, the app is constantly loosing it's rights
