Can you remove the SharePoint App Bar for Users

Copper Contributor

Is it possible to remove the App Bar on the left side of SharePoint sites for most users? We don't have a use for it at the current time.

@GibrielSpiteri Unfortunately, window to remove the SharePoint App bar temporarily is closed now. Check: Introducing a SharePoint app bar that features global navigation 

 

So, you cannot remove/hide it using the Microsoft supported/recommended ways.

 

However, you can develop a SPFx application customizer and hide it using custom CSS. Check:

  1. How to disable app bar on SharePoint online modern site 
  2. How can I include the same JS and CSS files on multiple SharePoint Modern Page? 
  3. How to hide the left app navigation bar in SharePoint using PowerShell? 

Note: DOM manipulation & CSS customizations are not recommended by Microsoft and some of your customizations may break if Microsoft changes HTML element id/classes in new release updates.
