Why does my home, back, and tabs buttons on bottom disappear?

[Android Central Question]

My bottom 3 buttons disappear when I play games like clash royale, clash of clans, and war and order. Is there any way to fix the buttons to where they stay up??

Welcome to the forums. If you swipe down from the top of the screen that will bring the status bar and nav buttons back to the foreground.

had to create an account to reply but where at on the swipe down? I do not see the nav button tab? Is there any way to keep them up permanently?

I'm not aware of any way to make those stay on. The nav bar should come back when you swipe down from the top, though.

This is called immersive mode. A swipe up from the bottom or down from the top will momentarily show the nav bar and notification shade. There is no way to defeat this, it's called for by the app.
