People use gestures…?

Mild guess. The dev(s) don’t know about navigation buttons. Gestures have been “standard” for a while now so maybe someone forgot about this as a possibility?

Yes. You just swipe left from the edge of the screen to go back. You swipe up from the bottom to go to home. And a smaller swipe from the bottom, dunno how to describe it, for the square menu thingy. Easier than the buttons and you also gain extra screen space.

Except when laying down and your blanket touches your screen and it loses its God damn mind.
Fuck I hate gestures

Oh…dunno. Mine’s not that reactive to objects. I just tried touching my screen with a piece of cloth, even wrapping my finger in one and I still can’t make it react.

I don’t care about that small amount of extra screen space, and I don’t like gestures, and I should have the ability to choose which solution I prefer.

You do get to choose. That’s what the settings are for. Someone commented the solution to the issue.

You’re writing this comment as if someone just took your phone, changed the setting and removed the ability to change it back

If this true this means they purposely ignore default APIs and reinvent the wheel. Android adjusts the viewport automatically in order not to overlap the navigation area, regardless of the actual navigation method. Sounds like incompetence

God, this might be why a certain micro rental car company in Los Angeles has the same problem in their app.
