Edge-to-edge is an Android feature that lets applications span the entire width and height of the display by drawing behind the Android system bars.
Before Chrome 135 Chrome on Android didn't draw edge-to-edge. However, from Chrome 135, Chrome on Android can draw web content up to the bottom device edge by extending the viewport into the gesture navigation bar area.

Chrome 135 on Android features a bottom bar called "the chin" that automatically goes out of the way as you scroll. This means that in most cases you won't need to do anything special when developing your site. However, in some cases content might get obstructed by the gesture navigation bar.
To ease the adoption of edge-to-edge we have prepared a guide explaining the effect this change has on websites and what you can do to embrace this change.
