Apple Intelligence is now available on iPhone, iPad, and Mac!
I have a new ipadpro 11 in.....
While watching movies, I can't get rid of the top menubar nor the bottom bar for the dock. They illuminate continually and make it difficult to watch the move. I use AV Player to view movies and it does not do this on my other iPad using iOS 12. I've searched the settings on both the ap and the iPad but can't find any differences between the two iPads......
Any ideas???
Thanks

iPad Pro, iOS 12
I don't know how to interpret the image you included above. It looks like the iPad is mostly showing glare and a background.

I agree with MichelPM the swipe indicator at the bottom cannot be removed.
But I do use an app on my iPad Pro 11” iOS 12.3 that does not ever display the menu bar. (I removed color so it could be displayed here. Less than 5mb is required to display a file.)
The movie is paused.....What I want to get rid of is the menubar on the top of the screen and bright 'app switcher' on the bottom.....Sorry for the crummy picture.....I tried the screen ratio changer from AV Player but it didn't change my problem...
Note the iPad Pro 11" was introduced in November, 2018.
The latest version of AVPlayer, version 2.91. was introduced over a year ago in early 2018, before the iPad Pro was released.
I guess you have your reasons for not using the iOS-included methods of watching movies. I wonder what those are.
I can't share movies from my MacBook to my iPad using Apple TV can I?
I don't see the 'sharing' feature on iTunes show up for Apple TV.
Is there another method of doing this with an IOS included ap?
Thx

I'm a bit confused as there are some omitted details.
So it sounds like you have a movie on your MacBook - presumably in your iTunes Library there under "Movies" - and you're trying to view this movie on your iPad.
If so, assuming your iPad is up to date with iOS 12.3, you should see that movie in the iPad's TV app (under your "Library" tab). If it's there, you can view it from there. If I got the situation wrong, tell me what facts I'm missing.
Actually, I have a number of saved movies in my documents folder. When I try to upload them to my iTunes library, it seems that they don't go in. That was the reason for AV Player. Via iTunes, I share (upload) the file I have on my mac's documents folder. Works or at least it did flawlessly.....Same with VLC but I preferred AV player
Again, maybe I'm missing something here but it isn't slightly odd the AV player would behave differently using the same IOS? I would have though it's behavior would be more IOS specific than machine specific.....
Any tips to what I might be doing wrong with the iTunes library would be appreciated....Is it limited to purchases from iTunes maybe?
Thanks
John
What format are the movies in? iTunes should accept H.264 or MPEG-4 format movies.
If you haven't already, use iTunes' menu to try File > Add to Library ... to bring the file into iTunes that way.
Sorry, but I don't buy that as they are not there when I'm using AV player on another iPad pro. Same IOS version.
Leads me to believe there 'is' a setting somewhere either on the IOS or in AV Player....That was kind of my question. Don't want to get into 'iTunes' vs AV Player because I felt iTunes lost that one a long time ago.....
Thanks for you efforts though
Aloha

From the AV Player support page:

It looks like you need to press the button indicated as "1" and choose full screen.
Tried that and still didn't work.....
Here's maybe a better picture of the screen.....
The menu bar and the swipe indicator at the bottom of the screen cannot be removed or disabled.
They are part of the basic iOS UI.
Sorry
