Live full Screen
Hello Ring Team,
I am a long-time user with a Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra. I am reaching out because there is a major "Feature Gap" between your iOS and Android apps that makes the experience on premium Android devices feel outdated.
The Issue:
Dashboard Preview: Correctly fills my entire S24 Ultra screen (19.5:9).
Live View: Stuck in a 16:9 box with huge black bars on the left and right.
The iOS Comparison: On the iPhone 17, the app includes a "Zoom to Fill" option that allows the video to utilize the entire display.
The Problem with Current Android Workarounds:
I have tried using Samsung's "MultiStar" and "Force Activities to be Resizable" settings, but the Ring Live View player specifically blocks these system overrides. Even the "Camera Cutout" settings are ignored by the Live View window.
My Request:
Please add a "Zoom to Fill" toggle for the Android Live View player. We have these beautiful, large screens on the S24 Ultra—please let us use them! Don't let the Preview look better than the actual Live Video.
Best regards,
Bel
