So, I’m using a Pixel 4A, and almost daily, I end up having to reboot because the navigation bar overlaps the bottom of my apps or games, and rebooting is the only way I find to fix this.

Is there another way? Did anyone know? It’s getting very frustrating. Sometimes I can’t do very basic things because of this.

      An alternative is to switch to gesture based navigation as it would remove the whole navigation bar.

        Strongly recommend this too. It’s takes a minute to get used to but once you do, it feels very natural.

          Agree. At first I didn’t like it too much but overall you get used to it moderately fast. There are instances where it fails you and the wrong gesture is triggered, but it’s worth getting rid of the old nav bar.

          Give it a try and be patient. :)

          It has the bonus effect of confusing my wife every time she tries to use my phone so that’s pretty kickass.

          It’ll never be as fast as just using the buttons. Also much more prone to wrong inputs.
