Completely agree. It wouldn't be quite so bad if there was something other than dead space there. It would still be annoying having to retrain myself after 5 years, but the fact that there's nothing where the buttons used to be is really annoying. Please let us turn off immersive mode. Add me to the list. Esp when the buttons still work (if you drag them up) so it's not like they aren't functional anymore AND there is nothing on that part of the screen. Plus the home button was handy to return to the phone desktop to switch between apps etc.I'd pay half my current CP hoard which is 1800+ to get this fixed.KGB

Blackstone said: Regarding the Android back and apps buttons that do not display in immersive mode:It literally takes a quick tap at the bottom to bring up the buttons, then it operates as normal.Yes, it takes doing it a few times to get used to the difference between the previous single tap and the current double tap, but it really shouldn't be that much of an inconvenience.
It's a simple trivial fix in the code
It definitely isn't just a tap here: it needs to be a swipe from the bottom of the screen on my tablet. And even then it will sometimes activate one of the in-game buttons while performing the gesture, since the back button pops up right over the "recruit heroes" button.
Judging from the documentation, this is because they chose the "sticky immersive mode", which means that the swipe gesture isn't captured by the OS:
https://developer.android.com/training/system-ui/immersive#sticky-immersive
If it was just plain immersive mode, the system UI wouldn't show up translucent, and the app wouldn't process the swipe gesture.
KGB said: It's a simple trivial fix in the code to turn on the flag to allow users to manually select whether or not they want immersive mode for an application. There is zero reason not to do it.
Adding options always has a cost. As well as coding up the toggle, it is a new configuration to test when the game is updated. So I think there is a case for just disabling it outright.
Alternatively, they could redesign the UI so the in-game back button is in a more ergonomic position. It never really occurred to me that iOS users have been making do without a convenient back button all this time...

TPF Alexis said: I have to say, as far as the stated goal of making everything run faster and more smoothly, this has been a hard fail from my PoV. I have never seen the game run this slowly or completely freeze up before, and it's now even easier to tap the wrong point on the screen for some reason.
