Any plans to address some lost vertical space:

  • Status bar (the time and networks icons could be pushed up and a bit to the left -- Samsung seems to be dealing OK with curved corners, and the camera cutout can "infringe" a tiny bit on the app's title bar)

  • Make the soft keys (aka nav bar) auto-hide to reclaim more vertical screen real estate, again as can be seen in some phones like S8

  • Official layout white list editor available to users (currently we have to rely on ADB and/or third-party tool)?

New WTC area in downtown New York (I'm on T-Mobile). Have my PH-1 with me for the first day today. While I don't have any signal strength issues per se, the data reception is a bit weaker when compared to iPhone 6s or Samsung S8+. Not enough to make me unhappy, but enough to take notice.

Agreed, that's the app I meant. Ideally, Essential should just have a setting where users can control this. I don't doubt many devs heard about PH-1, but I'm not sure they will be rushing to ask to be whitelisted. Let the owners decide!
