While your smartphone may be beautiful, the notch is plain ugly, and it makes apps and games look bad. Fortunately, if you have a Huawei P20, Huawei P20 lite or Huawei P20 Pro smartphone, you can disable the notch, so that apps and games on your screen look good again. Here how to disable the notch on Android smartphones:
