Anyone having a full screen app issue after the One UI 6.1.1 update? Can't get full screen use of apps except for Samsung Internet. Apps don't even show up under "full screen apps" in the display setting. Tried everything, so any suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you.
 
 Ps. -Tried a restart
- Cleared cache partition
 -All apps and phone are up to date
 -Tried changing camera cutout settings
 -No solution in Good Lock

1. Check App-Specific Settings: Some apps have their own full-screen settings that you can adjust independently. Open each app's settings to see if there’s an option to enable full screen.


2. Developer Options: Go to Settings > About phone > Software information and tap Build number seven times to enable Developer Options if you haven't already. Then, check Settings > Developer options for any settings related to display scaling or full-screen usage.


3. Reset App Preferences: This option resets app preferences without deleting data. Go to Settings > Apps > Menu (three dots) > Reset app preferences. It can sometimes resolve unexpected display behavior.


4. Safe Mode: Boot your device in Safe Mode to see if a third-party app is causing the issue. To do this, press and hold the power button, then tap and hold on Power off until you see Safe mode. Restart your phone normally to exit Safe Mode.


5. Roll Back App Updates: Some app updates may not yet fully support the new version of One UI. Try uninstalling updates on any affected apps via Settings > Apps > [App] > Uninstall updates if that option is available.


6. Report to Samsung: Since this issue seems isolated to non-Samsung apps after a recent update, it could be a bug. Report it here so Samsung can investigate and possibly release a patch.
