Ah, OK.
It is maybe an issue of the Android system, but there must be other, knowing this better. -

At risk of teaching Grandma to suck eggs:
SystemChrome.setEnabledSystemUIMode(SystemUiMode.immersiveSticky);
Swipe up from offscreen to make both top and bottom menus appear. If not used they disappear after approx 2 seconds.
Works on Android 10 upwards for me, didn't work on Android 8, and I don't have an Android 9 to hand.

True. In the more recent versions of Android there are options to either have buttons or swipes for navigation, where the swipe-only option releases more screen space. From about Android 12, IIRC.
But that does affect every app.
This is the option on Android 14 (Samsung A54):

@richtea999 I had previously found that option but I found that swiping up from the home screen brings up Samsung wallet which i don't like. I could not find a way to change it. I guess i will just have to learn to not swipe up on the home screen. Cheers.

When I tried to open Samsung Wallet, it wanted to override my Google pay before I could get to the Options. I decided to just uninstall Samsung Wallet. That works great. No more issue. Cheers!

@Doug-Robinson, Yeah, manufacturers thinking up all kinds of bad alternatives for what Android already has is a terrible thing. When my wife changed her Samsung for a Huawei some years ago, her calendar looked different and would not sync. "This is an Android phone, isn't it? Why is this different!" I told her "Well, you weren't using the Google apps..."
Okay, okay, I will admit: Android has a few drawbacks too...

@Con-Hennekens like the early days of Unix. It's standard! Well yea, depending on which stand you pick.
