    Hey all,

    I'm new to BBOS. Just picked up a Q10 to give it a whirl.

    Quick question. Is there any way to get rid of the black bar that appears along the bottom when using Android apps with the Q10? I see the use of the back button on the left hand side of it but it seems a massive waste of screen real estate. Can it be automatically hidden?

    Scroll from up to down and hide the bar

    What he meant was, swipe down from the top of the screen and select "Hide Bar"

    Also with the latest leak you can resize the app to fit better within the Q10 screen. This was great for my wife's Q10 and the Synology apps where I needed to log her in.

    Tried that. It remains on the screen. I've installed BBOS 10.3.1, could that have something to do with it?

    Nope... That option has been there for a looooong time. Once you select to hide it, it will stay hidden next time you open the app

    Awesome! Thanks SlcCorrado.

    Poncherelly, how do you resize an app?

    Are you saying this leak will resize some awkward apps, such as Plague, Inc? That would be awesome!

    The option to bring back the black bar comes back when you swipe down again
