The system navigation bar

Hi, in my web app built with Glide, I noticed that on my Samsung device there’s a navigation bar at the bottom (the system navigation bar) with the Back, Home, and Recent Apps buttons. This creates an issue in my app because the Back button allows users to exit the step-by-step flow I’ve designed.

Is there a way to disable or hide this navigation bar when users access my app through a browser or a direct link? If not, do you have any suggestions on how to handle this issue? Thanks!

There might be a chance you can use CSS to hide it, if you’re on a paid plan.

But from my experience, it’s still a losing battle, if swiping still allows users to get back to the last screen.
