**Update** : I pushed the app update to all my Android devices after performing the changes described in my previous messages and don’t see the empty space at the bottom of the screen anymore on these devices: - Honor 9 Lite: Screen aspect ratio is **18:9** - Huawei P Smart Z: Screen aspect ratio is **19.5:9** - Moto G 1st Gen: Screen aspect ratio is **16:9** - Xiaomi Mi A1: Screen aspect ratio is **16:9** However, I am still seeing the empty gap on the bottom of the screen on this device: - Samsung Galaxy S10: Screen aspect ratio is **19:9** So there seems to be something specific about the S10, perhaps the fact that it has a taller top bar in order to host the camera, dunno. In any case, the S10 is the only of my devices which still has the problem, the rest are fine. Can anyone else test the mentioned changes and deploy the new version, mentioning his device model and results? Could it be that devices with weird notches still have the problem? Just guessing… Thanks Konstantinos ---

My device is samsung galaxy a 10 with screen 19:9 aspect ratio I’ve tried it, and I no longer see the gap on the bottom but my screen still can not scroll down to the end and I had to set the screen padding bottom to 70 px in oder to see my bottom component. ---

Hello people! This problem is happening to me too. ---

Are you talking about the app as viewed in the Companion or for a compiled app? Did you disabled scrolling on all other elements of the screen? The Screen should be the only component with Scrolling enabled. ---

I also opened a topic in community - I think I missed this one 😅 > [@Blank space in the bottom-most part of the screen](http://community.thunkable.com/t/blank-space-in-the-bottom-most-part-of-the-screen/554709/): > > DISCLAIMER : This post is not about the white bar bug (caused by keyboard). Hi, wave Since 1 - 2 weeks, I have been experiencing a new issue, which is some blank space in the bottom-most area of the screen. Steps to re-produce the issue Take a fresh Screen, and set it’s background colour to something other than white. Now, take a Column, and set it’s colour to 0.25 alpha of white (so that the back screen is visible) Set the Column’s height and width to 100% & 90% respectively. Now in Thunk… Yes, I too have the same issue. Thanks! 😊 ---

Hello, Deluxe! Thanks for your attention. Sorry for any communication difficulties. I am using a translator. I’m from Brazil and I don’t speak English. As for the problem, I still haven’t had time to test your solution. But eliminating all the scrollable columns would not be the best alternative for my project. Some scrollable columns, which occupy only part of the screen, perform important functions. ---

Olá @robsonroch1r ! Eu concordo com você, a solução dele não é ideal para todas as situações. Eu acho ótimo ter encontrado uma solução alternativa. Acho que vi um dos administradores postar que eles estão realmente trabalhando neste problema de coluna e esperamos resolver o problema em breve! ---

I totally understand. It appears that this has been confirmed as a bug in GitHub so all we can do for now is wait. But yes, this sucks big time… ---

Hi, Jared! I think like you. An alternative solution is better than no solution. ---

While I wait for a definitive solution, I will think about adaptations using the alternative that you shared. Thanks! ---

**Update** : I checked the height of the space at the bottom of my app on my S10 device and it turns out it is exactly the same as the height of Android’s status bar on that device (148 pixels). I don’t know if this means anything to the Thunkable devs but I thought it would make sense to mention it. ---

No bro, I still stuck in this bug. I think the best thing we can do know is to use @Deluxe’s alternative as a temporary solution. The good news is Thunkable team is working on fixing it but it must take time. Thank u all for joining discuss in my topic 😄 ---
