Android Edge top bar after update to 121.0.2277.105 version

On a work fully managed Android device, after the Edge for Android app was updated to 121.0.2277.105 version when I open the Edge on top of the screen I get a bar named "Edge" that will take from the screen and is very annoying.
I noticed that this is happening only if I am not prompted to enter the device PIN when I open the app, if I am prompted to type the PIN then the content is rendered properly.
A workaround that I find was to change the device theme but this will be only a temporary fix as next time if I will open the app and I am not asked to type the PIN the top bar will reoccur. The application protection policy is enforced via Intune, and for inactivity we have 10 minutes set up for recheck the access.
Anyone come across with this issue?

Thanks.
Mario

    Good day Mario_1313! For this, it will be best to send a feedback to the team that is handling Edge by tapping the 3 lines and then tap Help and feedback and you can also check and test if this is also happening on the beta version in which you download from the Google PlayStore and I would also suggest to post this query to our neighbor forum from the link below as this is best suited in there. They are more oriented on with regards to this type queries/issues and there will be IT Pros and Gurus/System Admins/IT Admins and the likes who has the same deployment or setup in this type of environment and are available that will be able to fulfill your query out there.

    Hey Mario,

    Were you able to figure out anything with that issue??

    I'm having the same or a similar issue here as well. The Edge browser for Android has a large black bar across the top of the app, with the word Edge on the left. This is persistent across all web pages and the new tab page as well (seen in the screenshot below). In this case we have the app management profile configured to not require a passcode if the device has one. The devices are BYOD with a work profile and the app management profile also permits adding a personal account.

    This issue is happening only in the "work or school" profile.

    The personal profile appears correctly.

    I have tried clearing the cache and data, uninstalling the app and reinstalling and every time it comes back up with that black bar.
