- The latest December 2023 Pixel Feature Drop introduces a per-app aspect ratio override feature on the Pixel Fold and Pixel Tablet.
- This setting forces individual apps to go fullscreen, though it has the potential to break certain apps.
- The feature is part of the core Android OS and will be available across all large-screen devices like foldables and tablets with Android 15.
The Google Pixel Fold and the Google Pixel Tablet are Google’s most recent large-screen devices that go beyond the traditional phone form factor. With the latest December 2023 Pixel Feature Drop, Google has finally added the ability to override the aspect ratio of apps per app, letting you use apps fullscreen even if they don’t properly support a large display.
As confirmed by Mishaal Rahman, the latest Android 14 QPR1 update (that is reaching Pixel devices in the form of December 2023’s Pixel Feature Drop) brings a per-app aspect ratio override feature to the Pixel Fold and the Pixel Tablet.
