Also updated my app Only One ('https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/only-one/id681646403?ls=1&mt=8') and snuck in an optional notch hider (shhh.. don't tell Apple). It hasn't been tested on a real device yet, but I felt the notch would be a huge distraction to the game and generally any landscape app that I included it and you can judge for yourself!

Notch hider must be turned on in the game settings

I think Facebook is still working on updating the iPad Pro app in late 2019, we should see the iPhone X update no later than 2022.

Halide really is an insanely great example of UI design for X imo.

Pays off big time to update your app. Getting featured can mean thousands or even tens of thousands of new sales.

I really appreciate given the option to switch between a notched and notchless landscape mode as the user, and will probably give your app a try despite not hearing about it before. At least the user gets to choose where/when they have the notch if they like it or not rather than being shoehorned into it.

Granted, once Apple has discovered that you've done this they'll probably make you take it out unfortunately.
