An issue where the content of the dynamic island disappears and is displayed repeatedly
The issue is similar to the one below. https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/717795
Currently using the function to make the bottom home indicator disappear with setNeedsUpdateOfHomeIndicatorAutoHidden In case the status bar information is always displayed at the top
As the bottom home indicator appears and disappears, the content of the dynamic island also appears and disappears.
Although this is Apple's intention, users who watch the content for a long time may think that this is a bug or an error in the app because the dynamic island at the top repeatedly appears and disappears repeatedly.
Our app is an app for viewing documents.
At the bottom, there are many users who do not like that the home indicator is always on, so a function (optional) that automatically disappears unless you touch it is implemented.
And the status bar information is always displayed at the top of the content viewing screen. (battery or time information)
In that situation, when you switch to a tab page, the home indicator and dynamic island icon or text at the bottom are displayed and disappear again if you do not tap.
This phenomenon repeats over and over again as the pages are turned. (Because users keep repeating tabs as they turn pages)
While viewing the content, the icon or text of the Dynamic Island keeps appearing and disappearing.
For example, the issue arises when the content is always displayed on the dynamic island as shown below.
- Alarm triggered by Apple's default app
- Connect to other Bluetooth devices
- Tethering
Hopefully Apple will provide an option to separate the disappearance of the bottom home bar from the disappearance of the dynamic island content on the top.
Set the option to make the home bar disappear to True, and we hope to provide an option where the content of the dynamic island is always maintained even when the status bar is displayed.
