A region intended for important interface content around display cutouts, rounded edges, and system-controlled areas.
Why it matters
A mobile HUD should adapt its placement rather than assuming every display is a plain rectangle.

Vibe Bro’s heads-up
Shrinking the entire game view is not always the right response; the gameplay viewport and interface layout can adapt separately.
