Game does not support notched/punch-hole displays

Still an issue

It was fixe on iPhone X but not s8 or s9

Yes this is still an issue in 1.5.2

Have you tried enabling the full screen setting on Android?

Go to Settings→Display→App display in fullscreen→Minecraft→Fullscreen mode

That should enable the app to be displayed in fullscreen. Can you please report back as to whether this works for your particular device?

Thank you for your report!

Another Galaxy S8 user here. Can confirm that fullscreen works. Split screen doesn't however.

@unknown Does it work if you enable fullscreen mode in the android settings as described above?

Can confirm this issue happening on the Motorola Moto G7

I attached some screenshots.

As one can see the left part of the display is black. Whereas it's fine in other apps

For Samsung Galaxy S20 (all models affected), a workaround is to change the game's aspect ratio to Full in the phone settings. However, that will cause what I call "cutout overlapping" where something will try to display above the display cutout (separate issue, not going to get into detail about it unless I add a separate ticket about it). In my opinion I'm fine with the blacked out notch area (on Galaxy S20 it's a "holepunch" cutout), and wouldn't mind this not being fixed.

Issue exist for Xiaomi k30 android

Found a permanent fix for MIUI. Settings -> Display -> Notch And Status Bar -> Notch In Individual Apps -> Minecraft > Always Show Notch. If overlapping occurs, change screen safe area from Minecraft> settings -> video -> change screen safe area -> adjust the bar to fit your need

According to duplicate reports the Motorola Moto G8 Power and Cherry Mobile S9 Max are affected (as per MCPE-112733 and MCPE-113706)

In both 1.16.201 and beta 1.16.220.50, the Google Pixel 4a (both the 4G and 5G versions) are affected

The Samsung Galaxy S21+ and S21 Ultra (but interestingly, not the standard S21) also are affected as of the release of 1.16.210

May relate to MCPE-99377

According to MCPE-102642, Xiaomi Redmi Note 9 Pro is affected

The Samsung Galaxy Note20+ (only the plus models) is also affected

Xiaomi Redmi K40 Pro(haydn) is also effected in 1.16.210.05.

According to MCPE-123959, Xiaomi Redmi Note 8 Pro is affected

This also affects Samsung S10 series

This bug affects Xiaomi Redmi 7

This bug affects Xiaomi Redmi 9A. Idk why most Xiaomi and Redmi Phones are affected by this bug. Pls mojang if you are reading this pls fix this issue. This is infuriating to play with a black bar on the screen.

The proposed workaround is incorrect, "fullscreen mode" is not an android feature used in this way.

Can confirm this issue on Android 12 on Pixel 6.

Simplest proposed solution is to adjust app styling to fill notch area based on a Video Settings option, which will vary in feasibility based on device model.

Voted and watching this bug report. I am available for providing any further information or testing.

This is especially bad on the Pixel 5a on Android 12 because the virtual bezel on that side of the screen is so large.
There is no workaround for this phone because Google removed the ADB Immersive Mode commands on this version of the OS and there are no settings options for forcing apps to go fullscreen.

I am available to test any builds that address this on this device.  

Attached a pixel 6 image to show issue on pixel 6. Less pronounced than on pixel 5a

@unknown Some Android phones have this feature, and it works as I described it (my Moto G7 has it).

Pls add Xiaomi Poco X3

Same on my MIX4, though it doesn't have any notched screen options, game still not full screened

this problem is happening on my poco x3 gt, can you please fix it asap?

The same with Xiaomi mi 11 Lite 5G 

Its weird because Minecraft worked normally, but after I reinstalled it - it bugged like this.

Edit: I fixed it, on Xiaomi I just wrote "notch" into settings search, clicked this, found Minecraft and set "always show notch"
