nav bar: can hide while navigating, or until the screen is tapped
...
Set in car Settings. Off "Always show", the bar floats over the map, so
hiding it never resizes the map app's surface; the app is told the bar
covers the bottom while it shows. The arrival card no longer counts as
covering the map, so Waze's speedometer sits level with it.

navigation: directions in short bars, measured so apps keep their map clear of them
...
OsmAnd centred its arrow across the whole map because we only told it about
the arrival time, and Waze's speedometer sat under the map buttons. The turn
is now one short bar across the top and the arrival time one line along the
bottom; both bars and the button column are measured where they land and
left out of the area the app is told it can see.
