   Do you still specify a value for android.max_aspect in your application.xml as suggested above Shaun or not for your solution?

   Thanks Shaun. In the meantime I have done some more testing (on an online service with real devices) and your solution fixes indeed the cut off problem.
   My app is in portrait mode and on taller devices like the Samsung S9 and the LG V40 thinQ, the screen is not fullscreen, there are black bars on top and bottom. But there is no more cutting off happening, the whole viewport is visible. In my test the android.max_aspect being there or not and its value didn't make a difference.
   I wonder if there is a solution to the cutting off problem without losing the full screen on these devices.

   Screenshots of for example LG V40 thinQ:
   homescreen, app with cut off problem, app with the solution but the trade-off: less full screen

   Ok, i think this issue is there in LG V40 thinQ. We need somebody with this phone to test out and see if other app are also having this issue.

    Well the V40 is just an example, I see the same behavior on a Samsung S9. I'm using kobiton.com to test.
    But I'm thankful the cut off problem is solved, it would just be nice if there was some sort of fullscreen solution for all devices.

    I got an answer on the Air forum:
    https://forums.adobe.com/thread/2567541
    So it seems the issue of the bottom part being cut off can be solved without the ANE, as long as the max_aspect value is higher than 2.0.
    It seems it's the 2.0 value that causes the incorrect letterboxing with the bottom part cut off on recent models.
