You can specify the supported ratio for the App in AndroidManifest.xml

With the property android.max_aspect you can assign the maximum value that the App will maintain its appearance, adapting to the.

<meta-data android:name="android.max_aspect"
    android:value="ratio_float"/>

For screens with 19:6 format, its value is 1.86 and so that the app can be expanded to another ratio.

<application>

    <meta-data android:name="android.max_aspect" android:value="2.1" />
