How do you hide the Address bar in Google Chrome for Chrome Apps?

Question

I want to increase the screen real estate for my Chrome app. The Address Bar is useless in a Chrome App and I was wondering if there was a way to disable it.

Answer 1

For Chrome on Ubuntu (16.04), F11 is the way to go.

Answer 2

Instructions as of Dec 2018:

1. Visit the site you want in Chrome
2. From menu select "More tools" > "Create shortcut..."
3. From apps (can visit chrome://apps/), right click site then enable "Open as window"

Now when you open the shortcut it will open in a window without toolbar.

Answer 3

In the latest version of Chrome (Version 50.0.2661.94 m) you can accomplish this by going to the menu and then clicking -> More Tools -> Add to Desktop. You will then want to check off "Open as Window" in the popup that appears and then click "Add". Screen shots below:

Answer 4

MAC: CMD+Control+F goes fullscreen, and CMD+Shift+F hides the navbar

WINDOWS: F11 (possibly Alt+Enter too, as with many games like Dota)

Mac used to be CMD+Shift+F

Answer 5

Uncheck Always Show Toolbar in Full Screen in View menu:

and go to fullscreen then:

Alt+Cmd+F - on Mac

F11 - on Windows

Answer 6

Vivaldi Chromium-based Browser can hide the address bar for my Home Theather PC. Using that app you can show/hide a floating bar with F8 key. Other answers are unrelated to what was asked!
