"Immersive Mode" just the way you like!

The "Immersive Mode" itself is a awesome feature right? But it's really annoying
that some apps don't make use of this beautiful way to enjoy a bigger screen.

Wouldn't it be nice if you could define the way it works yourself?

Well now you can with "Immersive Manager".

"Immersive Manager" allows you to tweak every aspect of where and how the
"Immersive Mode" should work on your device.

You can either define a global "Immersive Mode" which will be applied system wide.
Or if you wanna go further you can define the "Immersive Mode" per-app.

The following options are available and can be applied individually:
Full -> Will hide both the status bar and the navigation bar
Status -> Will only hide the status bar
Navigation -> Will only hide the navigation bar
None -> Will leave both system bars visible

No root required!
No draining background services!
No hacky or buggy overlays!
Just a simple and clean user interface which applies your settings in real time.

In order to make "Immersive Manager" work the WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS permission must be granted.
Normally this permission is only granted to system applications because it allows the app to write system settings.

If you're device is rooted you can grant the permission from inside the app with just one click.
Otherwise you have to do it manually with a simple ADB command.
You will find a detailed tutorial inside the app.

There's also a super handy quick settings tile to switch between "Immersive Mode"'s

The internet permission is used for analytics only.

"Immersive Manager" also offers support for Tasker view broadcasts.

So let's go make the "Immersive Mode" your own

More features will come in the future.


Android ADB PC instructions
1 - Enable Developer Mode in the Android settings.
2 - Enable USB Debugging

Ratings and reviews

he added another app just to make this app irrelevant and required you to have both apps to use it creating useless redundant. time to move to tasker ig

This is the perfect app for the OnePlus 7 Pro and all other huge-screen devices. Other apps will not let you choose on which app immersive mode will be turned on, but this one will! A quick adb command via the computer and you're all set! If you're using Snapchat, put it in the blacklist because Snapchat seems to be incompatible with immersive mode.

Don't know which app some people are using but the UI is as bare bones as it comes (right down to the serif font) and where are all of these extra settings etc?! I wanted to hide the status bar, but this just replaces the status bar with a solid black strip I can see no way to change. Uninstalled it immediately to get a refund but no refunds....I want my $2.79 back! 🤣 Quick star does a far better job of this (status bar is transparent) and is free.
