Angular UI Bootstrap - Responsive Navbar - Hide on state/view change

Question

I'm using Angular UI Bootstrap#0.12.1 and UI router#0.2.15 in my application.

I have a responsive navbar which is working fine. The problem is in mobile view When I click on any menu/link, the state/view changes. But the navbar appears to stay there.

I want it to hide. It will be great if it come as drop-down.

I created a Plunkr Sample

Following is my navbar

<nav class="navbar navbar-default" role="navigation" ng-controller="MenuCtrl">
    <!-- Brand and toggle get grouped for better mobile display -->
    <div class="navbar-header">

      <button id="btn-menu-toggle" type="button" class="navbar-toggle" ng-init="navCollapsed = true" ng-click="navCollapsed = !navCollapsed">
        <span class="sr-only">Toggle navigation</span>
        <span class="icon-bar"></span>
        <span class="icon-bar"></span>
        <span class="icon-bar"></span>
      </button>
      <a class="navbar-brand" href="#">Brand</a>
    </div>
    <!-- Collect the nav links, forms, and other content for toggling -->
    <div class="collapse navbar-collapse" ng-class="!navCollapsed && 'in'">

      <ul class="nav navbar-nav">
        <li ng-class="{'active':$state.includes('home')}" ng-click="collapseMenu()"><a ui-sref="home.main1">Home</a></li>
        <li ui-sref-active="active" ng-click="collapseMenu()"><a ui-sref="dashboard.dash1">Dashboard</a></li>
        <li ui-sref-active="active" ng-click="collapseMenu()"><a ui-sref="report">Reports</a></li>
      </ul>
    </div>
    <!-- /.navbar-collapse -->
  </nav>

I tried calling collapseMenu() function on any menu click and I have the following code in controller

$scope.collapseMenu = function() {
        if ($(window).width() <= 768) {
            console.log('hiding');
            $('#btn-menu-toggle').click();
        }
    }

But I'm getting error

Error: [$rootScope:inprog] $apply already in progress
http://errors.angularjs.org/1.4.2/$rootScope/inprog?p0=%24apply
    at REGEX_STRING_REGEXP (angular.js:68)

    at n.fn.n.each (jquery-2.1.4.min.js:2)
    at n.fn.extend.trigger (jquery-2.1.4.min.js:3)

How to solve it? Is there any better way to make the navbar as dropdown in mobile view?

Thanks.

You don't need to call .click() explicitly. Just change the variable that is controlling the state of the menu:

$scope.collapseMenu = function() {
    if ($(window).width() <= 768) {
        console.log('hiding');
        $scope.navCollapsed = true;
    }
}

Thanks, It's working. But the plunkr link doesn't work because it doesn't have $scope.navCollapsed = true; line in that. :)
