Fix the Thicker Status Bar on Your Pixel 9/Pro/XL After the December Update!

[@RaySchneider]

I was happy with the results but the bigger cutout isn't worth it. Thanks for the info!

@@RaySchneider thanks for watching! Yea after restarting the phone it was great. Thinner status bar with no notch but eventually the notch would appear. You could restart your phone again and it would disappear again. Might be annoying tho

Qfter setting it looks fine ,but Qfter restart pixel ignor the setting

[@ColinYKL]

It should stay thinner after restart. It's just you may see the notch.

I don't understand why they placed the front camera lower than the Pixel 8. So now you have a thicker status bar.

The camera is much bigger on the 9 series compared to the 8 series.. that's how much they added (the size of the new camera)..

I don't understand why they placed the front camera lower than the Pixel 8. So now you have a thicker status bar. C'mon Google!

[@ColinYKL]

It's because of the wider view and the higher megapixel count that requires a bigger camera so that's why it's a bit lower than the pixel 8. But even then I think it's still a thick status bar. Now it's even thicker...

Very complicated comparing with phones which have own UI..😂🎉

[@ColinYKL]

Yea it's a workaround but every phone have their own downsides. This is one for that pixel.
