To make the PWA go into the camera shot space (i.e., behind the status bar on Android and iOS) and behind the home bar on iOS, you'll need to apply specific CSS and meta tag changes. Here's how you can do it:
Modify the viewport meta tag:
This tag helps your PWA adapt to different screen sizes and layouts properly.
Add the following meta tag to your index.html file inside the
section:
viewport-fit=cover is key to allowing your app to go into the space behind the notch (camera shot space) and the home indicator on iOS.
Apply Safe Area Insets for iOS:
You can use CSS to ensure content adjusts correctly when going into the safe areas of iOS devices.
Add the following CSS to your global styles:
body {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
height: 100vh;
width: 100vw;
overflow: hidden;
display: flex;
justify-content: center;
align-items: center;
background-color: #000; / Adjust the background color /
/ Add safe area insets for iOS devices /
padding-top: env(safe-area-inset-top);
padding-bottom: env(safe-area-inset-bottom);
padding-left: env(safe-area-inset-left);
padding-right: env(safe-area-inset-right);
}
This will allow your content to extend behind the notch and home bar but stay visible and accessible.
Handle Android Status Bar:
You may want to customize how the status bar behaves on Android devices. You can do this using JavaScript or external libraries like react-native-webview in a PWA context.
Add this code to control how the status bar behaves:
if (window.matchMedia('(display-mode: standalone)').matches) {
// Code to control the behavior of status bar when in PWA mode
// For example, you could set the status bar color
document.querySelector('meta[name="theme-color"]').setAttribute('content', '#000000'); // Set the color you want
}
Enabling Full-Screen Mode on iOS and Android:
Ensure your PWA manifest includes the following settings to allow for full-screen mode on both iOS and Android:
Add this to your manifest.json:
{
"short_name": "YourApp",
"name": "Your Full App Name",
"start_url": "/",
"display": "standalone",
"background_color": "#000000", // Set the background color to match your app's style
"theme_color": "#000000",
"icons": [
{
"src": "path/to/icon.png",
"sizes": "512x512",
"type": "image/png"
}
]
}
This approach should allow your app to properly extend into the camera space and home bar regions, creating a more immersive experience for your PWA users on both Android and iOS.
