"View in VR" does not remove the address bar on iOS about webvr-polyfill

Some day iOS Safari will support fullscreen API, but until then 🙃

but the browser in question is not Safari

This is still not fixed. Apparently two years was enough time for Safari's VR to be fully built out without reproducing this bug, and still, Chrome hasn't responded. It's probably only a small fix, too. Just hide the URL bar when the Google Cardboard API says that the headset is on. It's exactly that simple.

This requires iOS to support fullscreen API, or to allow other browser engines on the device (iOS Chrome still uses Safari Webview, limited by what Safari implements). There may be new hacks available in 2021 to circumvent Apple intentionally dragging down the web.

Yikes, after that read - I guess I'm not surprised. But I should be. This is malice disguised as neglect coming from Apple. I hope they get some sense on this matter soon.
