## Description

Substratum Navbars offers 24 distinct navbar styles to customize your Android device's navigation bar. This theme requires the Substratum Theme Engine and a ROM that supports OMS (Overlay Manager Service), compatible primarily with Android versions 7.x to 8.0. Users can easily select their preferred navbar style within the Substratum app and apply the changes, which will refresh the UI to display the new look. Note that support for Samsung devices and Android 8.1+ is limited, as navbar buttons may appear very small in newer versions. Ensure overlays are disabled before uninstalling the app to avoid issues. For installation guidance and support, users should refer to the included instructions or contact the developer directly.
