Edge-to-edge layouts means that the window spans the entire width and height of the display by drawing behind the system bars including the status bar, caption bar, and navigation bar.

This means that your content may render behind operating system elements and you will need to account for this in the design and execution of your application. You will likely want to render certain content under the system UI, such as scrolling and non-UI elements however it is important that your interactive elements never get rendered in these areas.

For example in the following a button is obscured by the navigation bar:

Obscured	Correctly Rendered

Using the methods here you will be able to correctly implement these solutions in your application.

November Release Roundup

Welcome to this month’s extension update! We’ve been busy refining existing tools and expanding support across platforms to keep your AIR development workflow modern, reliable, and aligned with evolving platform requirements. This release brings important improvements to the WebP extension - now fully supported on macOS and Windows - as well as the first beta of our new AgeRange extension, designed to simplify age-verification flows on iOS and Android. There’s also ongoing progress on the new Display extension, and we’d love your help testing it.

October Release Roundup

This month we’ve released a range of updates focusing on macOS compatibility, Android 15 edge-to-edge improvements, and major SDK updates across Adverts, Facebook, and mediation extensions.

These updates continue our commitment to keeping all ANEs stable, modern, and aligned with the latest platform changes from Google and Apple.

September Release Roundup: Android 15 & iOS 26 Compatibility

Great news for all our developers! This month brings critical updates across our extension portfolio to ensure compatibility with Android 15 (API 35) and iOS 26, along with exciting new features to enhance your applications.

August Release Roundup: Major updates across several extensions

This month brings one of the biggest waves of updates we've seen recently, with multiple major version releases, SDK updates, and a few important deprecations to note. A lot of these updates bring improved compatibility with Android 35 with the major view changes that are required with any app updates now.

This August has been a month of major foundation upgrades - from Firebase and Play Services to Media Player and Adverts. While some updates require careful migration (especially Firebase and Game Services), they set developers up with the latest features, improved stability, and compliance with upcoming platform changes.

If you're using any of these extensions, now is the time to update your projects and plan migrations ahead of deprecations like Firebase Dynamic Links.

Android 15 (API v35) includes some changes that are intended to create a more consistent, intuitive user experience.

Play Billing v7 (Android 35), Adverts

We've had a big month of updates! From crucial billing upgrades to smoother sign-ins and better mediation support, this round of releases helps you stay compliant, improve user experience, and keep things running smoothly.

We'd also like to take a moment to thank everyone who has migrated to our new payment provider and started using the new website. We hope the transition has been smooth and that you're finding the new site easier to use. If you run into any issues or have any questions, don't hesitate to reach out - we're always happy to help!

New website release, extension updates!

Over the past few months, we've been working intensively to rebuild airnativeextensions.com, primarily to integrate a new payment provider and ensure we can continue delivering extensions to developers worldwide. It’s been a significant undertaking, but we’re confident the improvements to the platform will be well worth it.

What this means for you:

• Nothing will change in the near future
• All new purchases will be done through our new payment provider
• We are asking all clients to migrate to the new payment provider

We've made migration easy and allows you to combine your subscriptions into a single payment if you want. More information below.

Also there are lots of extension updates that have been released.
