Samsung’s NavStar app has a bug that refuses to let your navigation bar hide

NavStar, a Good Lock module, lets you customize the navigation bar on Galaxy phones in all kinds of ways. For example, you can change the look of the icons, or even tack on additional buttons. However, one of its most useful functions is no longer working properly for some.

NavStar has an option that allows you to hide the navigation bar if you don’t want to see it all the time. According to a Galaxy S25 Plus user reporting on Samsung’s community forum, this feature is malfunctioning. Even when unpinned, the bar will remain in place and won’t go down. It appears that tapping the pin/hide button does nothing.

A member of the Good Lock support team has responded to the report, confirming the bug. According to the support team, a fix for the hide button function in NavStar requires platform modification. They add that the glitch is “scheduled to be resolved through a future software update.”

Unfortunately, the support team member did not offer a time window for a rollout. So, we know a fix is on the way, but it’s unclear when the fix will become available. Are you experiencing a similar issue with NavStar? Tell us in the comments section below.
