Hey guys, quick question:
As far as I understand, immersive mode can be implemented in two ways in 4.4
KitKat Feature Spotlight: Apps Can Now Go Truly Full-Screen, Hide The Navigation Bar
Either the user has to swipe down to bring back the navigation bar (the book readers, games example) or touch the screen (the video players example).
Is there a way (even if it involves a custom rom) to make video players use the swipe down implementation? The reason I ask is that I have a toddler who I often let watch cartoons on youtube (ie while waiting for food at a restaraunt...). He constantly touches buttons on the navigation bar on accident which stops the video and then I have to take the phone from him, restart the app, restart the video, and give it back. I would love to be able to use the swipe-down implementation in this scenario. Anyone know of a way to do this?
