Notification Bar keeps on disappearing
Describe the bug
The notification bar keeps on disappearing when apps are launched. And then the only way to get it back is if the launcher is changed back to default and then switched back to Niagara. It is basically like the hide notification bar status offered by the app, but it is enabled all the time. You can never see your notification bar. I have attached a screenshot showing it
Steps to reproduce
- Open any application.
- The status bar will disappear
- The only way to get it back is turning off the launcher and turning it back on
Does the issue also occur with other 3rd-party launchers?

Device name

Screenshots / Screen recordings
Same here. The status bar/notification bar (where the the time and battery life are shown) disappears after user returns to the app (without closing it). E.g., When I open the GMAIL app and first use it, the status bar/notification bar is there. Then, I swipe up, switch to another app, and come back to GMAIL, the status/notification bar is gone.
Status bar also randomly disappears when on the HOME screen. Sometimes it's there sometimes it's not.
When will this be fixed? This issue not present with the own launcher that comes with the phone. Thank you,
This bug is not caused by Niagara Launcher, but by the OnePlus Launcher. Even if you're using a third-party launcher like Niagara, OnePlus Launcher is still running in the desktop and is responsible for drawing elements like the Status Bar or the recent Apps view.
Anyway, just install the latest version of OnePlus Launcher from APKMirror, to remedy this issue:
