Power BI Dashboard has very wide margins on Android device - can margins be decreased?

My Power BI Dashboard has very wide margins - can margins be decreased?

This is specifically question about the size of margins viewing Power BI report on Android device but the margins are wide and appear to be fixed on Desktop, Online Service and Mobile.

I set the report to 'fit width', and also tried 'fit to actual' size but neither got rid of these huge margins which are eclipsing valuable screen real estate.

This is a screenshot of the dashboard on Android Mobile Power BI app on a Note 4 phone.

Hi yitzhak, great thanks.

More specifically this occurs when pinning a report with multiple charts to a dashboard. 

When pinning a single chart in this report to a dashboard, the margins are not wide, in fact the pinned report fills the dashboard space. 

So for anyone else interested in creating a dashboard without the super wide margins, you will have to pin your charts one by one to the dashboard in order to have them fill out width.

I have filed a defect to the product team will update once resolved.

Hi,

Have you tried this on the latest version? do you still see this?

All the best,

Doesn't look like any change. I just tried pinnning a report, with multiple charts,  to a dashboard. The large margins still exist when viewed on mobile app.

Something I didn't try before that made the margins a bit less wide was removing the report title. But they were still far too wide, taking up valuable screen space.

The  advice to pin charts individually to dashboard still stands as best way to avoid having large margins on Android mobile app.

Thanks.
