Regardless what setting I apply for an app, it does nothing. Fix urgently please.

I bought Samsung phone over a Pixel for this feature and Samsung now causally break it. Slightly Annoyed. 

Anyway to rollback? I game a lot and doing do with black bar is going to be annoying.

Hi! Im on the ui7 (s25u) and just tested myself- appears to be working for me.

Settings- display- camera cutout- search *app- Press app- "hide camera cutout"

If its not working I can guarentee its nothing but a bug. Attempt restarting your device.

If it continues- go to samsung members app- support- feedback- 1746038139880.jpg

This is the S23 section. I suspect they pay more attention to the latest and greatest. 

I've tried restarting, it does nothing.

Reported.

I wonder if they do this on purpose. Nice way to encourage people to upgrade. Wait a month or so for them fix it or buy another phone. yay,  The Samsung experience. lol 

I game a lot so having a black bar and smaller screen is a PITA,

I doubt it. I mean, the last thing that would make a person upgrade is being messed up. That's going to cause customers to stray. It's an annoying bug, but I wouldn't call it a ploy.

Installed a game that I know works in fullscreen and you can hide the cutout. It appears there's no way to force apps into fullscreen anymore.

Not sure if this is bug or by design tbh.  Annoying.

Set everything to Auto, games or applications will decide how they will be displayed, on Auto they are mostly all full-screen

The apps I'm using need to be forced to use fullscreen. Auto presents the black bar.

I'm wondering if that's why the app was renamed. Force fullscreen functionality is gone.

Menu of camera cutout is same on my S21 Ultra with OneUI 6.1 and S24 ultra with OneUI 7, so this is not changed with OneUI 7 update,all apps are set to Auto and all apps supported full-screen on both phones
