Research direction
Start with the v7 StatusBar documentation page and locate the link labeled "Android 16+ behavior change". Verify the current official Android reference for the named attribute or behavior, then update or remove the link as appropriate. Done means the page no longer contains a broken external link and points to an authoritative replacement when available.

Issue Description
Summary
The StatusBar documentation page contains a broken external link. The link text "Android 16+ behavior change" points to an outdated/removed Android API URL and returns a "This site can’t be reached". This should be updated to point to the current Android API reference for the same attribute or removed if no direct replacement exists.
Affected page
https://ionicframework.com/docs/v7/native/status-bar
Broken link
- Link text: "Android 16+ behavior change"
- Broken URL: https://developer.android.com/reference/android/R.attr#windowOptOutEdgeToEdgeEnforcement
Steps to reproduce
- Open the StatusBar documentation page: https://ionicframework.com/docs/v7/native/status-bar
- Find the link with the text "Android 16+ behavior change".
- Click the link it navigates to the developer.android.com URL above which currently returns a "This site can’t be reached" or otherwise does not resolve to the expected API reference.
Actual behavior
Clicking the link fails to load the expected Android API documentation for the referenced attribute.
Expected behavior
The link should point to the current Android API reference for the attribute (R.attr.windowOptOutEdgeToEdgeEnforcement) or to an equivalent up-to-date documentation page that describes the Android 16+ behavior change referenced by the StatusBar docs.
If an exact API page no longer exists on developer.android.com, consider:
- Linking to the relevant Android release notes or migration guide that documents the behavior change, or
- Removing the broken link and replacing it with a short explanatory note and a reference to the appropriate Android docs or issue tracker.
Suggested fix
- Verify the current official Android documentation for
R.attr.windowOptOutEdgeToEdgeEnforcementor the Android 16+ behavior change. If a new URL exists, update the link target accordingly. - If no direct API reference exists anymore, replace the link with one of:
- The Android release notes for the API level that introduced the behavior change, or
- A canonical Android migration guide or blog post that documents the change.
- Optionally, add a note in the docs explaining why the link was updated (e.g., external doc moved/removed).
