Status/notification bar is always on screen.

Got the z3 compact. Very nice device, i like it. Only thing that irritates me is the bar on top of the screen is always there.. No matter what app im using. Is this normal? Can not find anything about how to change this.
Anyone?

That's normal, some apps will have an immersive mode option, like clash of clans and other apps. That's up to the app developers to add this feature.

Ok. That **bleep**.. And thanx for the link but thats all developer language, do not understand what i can do with the information. And if an app has this immersive option, where would i find this? Or is it automatic? And the camera does use full screen. Is there no other way around this? If i knew this i would have never choose this model. And ive read all i could find about this Phone before making up my mind. No one mentioned this always there bar. Looks to me that this is an issue for other People, mostly because its smaller than the, somehow more common "bigger" models.

It's automatic, so contact the app developers suggesting this option.
