 - `bundle_id` - (optional) It should match to the bundle id set on the Apple Developer website for this app. If it's not set it will default to: "org.kiwix.custom.{brand_name}", where the brand name is the name of the folder, eg: "org.kiwix.custom.dwds".
 
+- `disable_immersive_reading` - optional (true| false) - if set to true, it will disable the immersive reading functionality on iOS, which is hiding the top / bottom nav bars while scrolling the web content. If the ZIM content is specific to a full screen experience (eg: PhET) it might be better to turn this feature off, so that the user navigation is not blocked (eg navigating back, search, bookmarks ect).
+
 - `zim_auth` - (optional) this is needed if standard http authentication is required to download the ZIM file. This should be set to **an environment variable name**, which will be resolved during build time. Make sure that the environment variable itself is set up properly before running the build process. **Do not place any credentials directly here, it's not safe, and won't work.**
