What problem does it solve?

Safe areas on modern devices can obscure content; this guide provides strategies to ensure UI respects notches, Dynamic Island, home indicators, and Android cutouts. This Skill covers CSS, JavaScript, and native configurations to consistently render edge-to-edge layouts across iOS and Android devices.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Viewport and CSS: Enable safe-area insets with viewport-fit=cover and env(safe-area-inset-*) variables to pad content appropriately.
  • Cross-platform guidance: Apply consistent patterns in CSS, TS/JS utilities, and native iOS/Android tweaks to support notches and display cutouts.
  • Real-world use case: Implement a header and content layout that remains visible and accessible on iPhone with a notch or Dynamic Island and on Android devices with display cutouts.

Quick Start

Add the viewport-fit=cover meta tag and use env(safe-area-inset-*) values in your CSS to respect notches and home indicators.
