Issue with nav bar on Pixel phones

Gesture navigation on Android features a small black bar at the bottom of the screen, it’s transparent (like iOS) most of the time but devs specifically have to account for it, either make it a specific colour or transparent or it just appears black, which is quite ugly when the surrounding app is white or any other colour.

Some manufacturers like Samsung allow you to remove the bar completely, but on others including Pixel there is no option.

Android 14 beta has a transparent nav bar option (currently only sort of working) so hopefully this will be one less thing for devs to worry about in the future.
