Only works in portrait mode That too it seems to work but it's just a black part which phone still thinks to be a part of a working display, but what I wanted is that phone does not use that upper part for anything

Very useful and apt for what it intends to do. It hides the top notch without eliminating notification, battery and time information from their dedicated spaces. It does so by simply applying a black adjustable strip allowing the phone to have desired symmetrical appearance. Pros: Stable and customizable. Cons: WhatsApp status, lockscreen and notification screens aren't optimised very well, so you'll continue to see those ugly notchs here and there. Will update if it gets better or worse.
