Fill iPhone X Screen with Xamarin.Forms App

I have an iPhone app I created using Xamarin.Forms. Recently, I tried looking at my app on the iPhone X simulator and found that there is blank space at the top and bottom of the phone as shown in this picture:

I saw in this SO post that when the iPhone 5 came out, there was a similar issue that was fixed by adding a launch screen image of a different size.

Does anyone know the fix for iPhone X? Is it a launch screen issue or something else? Are there any other things that should be done to a Xamarin.Forms app to make it compatible with iPhone X?

Solution

  • I had the same problem on an old Xamarin Forms project.

    You probably don't have the launch image for the iPhone X (that was my case). I just replaced my launch images asset with a storyboard for launch screen and it was good.

    Hope it helps !
