To HTC One user:
Dear HTC one users, I am aware of the problem of the black bar. I currently don't have a good solution. I will try to hide the black bar and then add menu button as a swipe gesture. However, I currently have no idea if it is possible to achieve that.
Here is a possible workaround. A dear user told me that when the black bar presents, try to use the black bar as the bottom of the screen and do the swipe. It could work but may not be so well. I am glad this app could be helpful for you guys.
