How to install GMD Full Screen Immersive Mode APK on Android phone or tablet?
Download GMD Full Screen Immersive Mode APK file from ApkClean, then follow these steps:
Update Phone Settings
Go to your phone Settings page
Tap Security or Applications (varies with device)
Check the Unknown Sources box
Confirm with OK
Go to Downloads
Open Downloads on your device by going to My Files or Files
Tap the APK file you downloaded (com.gmd.immersive-v1.5-ApkClean.apk)
Tap Install when prompted, the APK file you downloaded will be installed on your device.
A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.
Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?
A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading). As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.
Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?
A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.
Q: What are Android App permissions?
A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.
Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

4 ★This is a great app considering it is only beta. the animation should be smoother and also put MANUAL HIDE. Sometimes, we use nav navbar for a long time and it is annoying if we constantly need to swipe it every time it is gone. So,we can hide it only if we really dont need it,for exampe reading internet article.
4 ★Is there anyway to set the navigation bar to be 3 little faded out dots so that I can still type when needed but any other time not burn the 3 shapes into my organic screen?
4 ★Seems to work great for the most part. Two issues. The keyboard thing other people have talked about is annoying but not a deal-breaker. There's a small red bar at the bottom of my htc10 when the app puts it into full-screen mode. It's not horrible, but it's distracting.
4 ★For better or worse, this app seems to currently be the only way to force immersive mode without rooting your device. Once you configure the app (I suggest upping the trigger sensitivity to 5 or higher) it works pretty well. While it may not have super smooth beautiful animations when switching on and off the nav bars it works. I ended up buying this app to save my Moto X from inevitable screen burn on the persistent header and footer bars. Also, it's crazy how much bigger your screen looks without the bars
1 ★Becomes horribly glitchy trying to use the keyboard while using full screen mode. Even one the nav bar is there, it still glitches. Sort this out and this app will be perfect.
4 ★Please..... Need help............ I've recently updated my android 5.1 to 6 and now an "overlay Screen detected" bug force me to disable its permission of draw over other aaps, after disable, This app not works But other apps can work ... Using in - Sony E5563.
3 ★Seems to work for awhile then quit. Other times I get immersive mode in apps where I supposedly have it disabled. Still paid for the pro version and have no intention of asking for a refund with the hope that it will get better. I used to use the GMD hide soft keys app when I was rooted (paid version there as well). Would love for this app to be as solid on unrooted devices...fingers crossed.
3 ★Works pretty good with most apps , I don't like how to get the adaptive buttons back I have to swipe up. Which happens to be the same gesture for app drawer. Also once I uninstalled app it still hides everything with out the app being installed . I don't know how to make it stop.
4 ★Well it does warn you that keyboard won't work when full screen. But considering you don't have to root i think its pretty good. I can get passed the keyboard issue but what i cant let go is the fact that you sometimes cant press anything when full screen.
3 ★So I have SAO launcher installed on my XPERIA Z 3 and I noticed I can't use this launder while the nav bar is hidden😕... it could be SAO with the problem but just an observation. Then there's the keyboard issue which I think is kind crucial.
3 ★I purchased it almost right after receiving my new Nexus 6P. Most time it works fine, but a black bar at the bottom will be left after the soft keys hidden some time. It usually happens when I'm using Chrome, but also in some other apps. Besides, the keyboard issue is annoying. I do hope the developers can fix these problems in the newer version(s).
4 ★The only real issue I've run across it when I go into landscape mode. The button to show the navigation bar ends up stuck on the side of my screen and I have to open the app and turn it off and back on to fix it. It's kind off annoying. Other than that though, I really like it.
