Why does Instagram and Facebook apps on Pixel devices have dark navigation bar whereas other Android devices have light navigation bar on their Instagram and Facebook apps ?

Yup, i also noticed that, might be nice getting option to change to dark...

Just use the app "Navbar apps", you can set any app's navbar to any colour

POCO Launcher

POCO Launcher is surprisingly simple and elegant — at least, for Xiaomi. It might look simple, but it packs in plenty of options, including things as detailed as different transition animations, sort of like Nova Launcher. The app drawer is accessible via a convenient and typical upward swipe, and apps are organized by type into categories like communication and entertainment.
The setup process is straightforward, and there are a surprising number of individual settings to explore, though it doesn't hold a candle to things like Nova Launcher when it comes to sheer customization options. Presumably, it's also in active development, so we should see more features landing soon.
Unfortunately, we can't download it over on the Play Store since the beta program registration is currently full. However, we can download it from APK Mirror .

I would like to see a dark theme in it... But all of MIUI has light theme..
I would have loved to see an option to resize the icons, did not find it through the setting so far, wonder if it is available yet.

It depends on the theme that you have installed in your MIUI-powered phone. For example "Geometry Black" that I have in my Mi5 is dark everywhere. In general, the default themes that xiaomi phone have are light-themed.
I don't know what is the similar theme for Poco and if this theme is compatible with it as I don't have it yet.

geometry black is available in themes and it tuns background o black for settings and all. The app drawer still stays white tough, which defeats its purpose. It more for MIUI & not optimised for "MIUI for POCO"
Just moved to Nova for a two reasons:
*no option to set grid sizes ( desktop and app drawer).
*Nova teslaUnread add on solves (at least temporary) lack of notification problem in notification bar.
*ability to change color/transparency of app drawer background.

By this do u mean the unread count badge on home page icons or does Nova give u notification in the status bar.
Even Poco gives unread badge just not the counts.

Yes, I meant badges and sadly is doesn't work properly for some apps. maybe I missed this option on poco launcher. But still grid adjustment is nesasary.
Yeah, it's great, but I would like to have 4 icons in a row with bigger icons, such as in iOS.
Also, some kind of live or scrollable wallpapers support would be nice.
Individual change of icons such as in Nova Launcher, too.

It's basically the same miui launcher with the added app drawer
its there a way to change the navigation bar color scheme, for some reason on dark apps the navigation bar below its all white its horrible
Something funny i noticed with Poco launcher.
Locking homescreen layout should mean no icon/widget can either be added to or removed from the homescreen.
But apparently, after you lock homescreen layout in settings, you can still add an app shortcut to the homescreen but you can't add a widget!
Just updated to latest Poco launcher,was the word on the header at the app drawer before?
No, it wasn't.
Did you update from PlayStore?
Post some impressions, please. Is it OK or is it buggy?

That black navigation bar

I can't be the only one who is annoyed by this - many apps have the navigation bar black at the bottom and the chin looks twice as big as it is. It's bugging the hell out of me and I was wondering if anybody knew how to change this so it matches the color of the app you're in.

I use Fluid N.G. to replace nav bar.. and I'm quite satisfy with that, while waiting EMUI 9 come out to P20 lite.. the app is available in playstore
Yes, Fluid N.G. is a very good app, I like it.
just go to settings, system, system navigation, there you can hide na navigation bar

Second notification bar?

I got the mate 20 pro yesterday. Mostly it's great but the limited space for notification icons drives me crazy. Is there any way to add a row to the notification area and effectively doubling the notification bar? I really don't mind taking away from the rest of the display.
You can find in the display settings an option to move the status bar below the notch.
In this way you'll get a full row available for the icons.
I don't think it's possible to create a second row in the status bar.

That app apparently has some limitations, like being able to see the second bar only when showing the desktop on the screen, not while using any other app.
Moreover it requires a particular live wallpaper to work.

Thanks but that just fills the status bar next to the notch, making it look like there's no notch - it doesn't move the notifications/add more space for notifications.
Hey guys! Anybody found a better way?
It's really annoying..

This isn't the case unfortunately.
All this does is blacken either side of the notch to hide it. The icons will still appear in the original positions either side of the notch.

Change NavBar Height?

It can be done without rooting the phone and installing unstable software. Check for ADB and / or
'Setting database editor' app. There is a setting in it to change navigation bar height.
Unable to the find settings
It's a good idea. But I can't seem to find the exact settings leading to "Navigation Bar Height" inside the Database Settings App.
I also tried Hex Installer, successfully changed the navigation bar. But no new string shower up in Database Settings App.
You can use Hex Installer for this (it's on play store)
Yeah but what sucks about Hex is, you're applying a theme.
And in Samsung OneUI, applying a theme means = Same notification heading colour for ALL APPS.
People want their notifications to have different colours. Like red Youtube, teal Twitter, blue FB, purple Discord

It's an issue with OneUI Theme Engine.
So I'm trying to find a way of changing NavBarHeight w/o applying a frigging theme

[Xposed][MOD][5.0+] Force black nav bar

I just got an Android 11 phone and to my dismay some older apps that display generally in a dark theme have an unmatching ugly white nav bar. This module turns nav bars black.

What phone, and can you make a semi transparent black for light and dark mode nav bar option

I have a OnePlus 9. But the xposed module will hopefully work on any Android 5.0 or higher phone.

It could be done, but since the apps won't be adapted for it, it might well obscure some app buttons at the bottom of the screen, so I am not inclined to do it. But if you want to, you can take the source code and just change opacity = 0xff to whatever you like in Hook.java.

In laposed what is supposed to get selected in scope system framework and systemui?
Or do I need to select every app that has a white navbar?

Finally, one that works. Tried on my Samsung Note 9 on Android 10. Thank you for sharing this module.
Edit: Turned out, it interferes with a button on my installed calendar app. I can't click a button at the bottom. I had to un-select my calendar app in LSposed. For my other apps, this module works fine so I still use it.
I just added two nav bar options in addition to black:
- 50% translucent
- match status bar (white when status bar is whitish; else black)

Hi arpruss, I can't find the settings to get to these added navbar options.
Can you guide us how to get to those options?
Thank you.

Tap on "Navigation bar."
Thank you. I found it
Hi @arpruss , would you consider adding another option for the nav bar to match the status bar color? For example when status bar is blue then nav bar is blue also.
Works perfectly on Oreo, thanks a lot
Hey, sorry for multipost but I wanted to push it to the top..
I'm on Oreo with the last, fully working version of Xposed as magisk module.
I noticed that some apps fail to "acknowledge" the navbar with your module enabled and that results in bottom bar,if they have one, being behind it and not being able to see or use it.
Can you please look into this issue?
Thanks for the module, I've been looking for something like this. Been using Nacho Notch to simulate something similar.
Seems like it can create some oddities in some apps. For example I've enabled it for YouTube (Vanced) and when I try to post a comment it refuses to show the comment box above the keyboard. Very odd issue, but it's fixed when I disable the module.
Also I cannot force the statusbar to be black?
I'm on Android 10 with an Xperia 5 ii

Yeah, I had the same problem.
Some apps even don't show the bottom menu if they have it.
It's really a pity cause I use both navbar customized with GravityBox and Xposed Edge for gestures and can't imagine my life without both of them lol ;P
So I have to bear the white navbar for now
What if I want some black navbar to white?
