TL;DR snippet Wrapping in if-else structure needed to avoid java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: No virtual method setDecorFitsSystemWindows exception on older SDK versions. if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.R) { window.setDecorFitsSystemWindows(false) } else { window.decorView.systemUiVisibility = View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_FULLSCREEN } Links with full information about insets and fullscreen modes in Android 11 [LINK] [this video]

For compatibility, use WindowCompat and WindowInsetsControllerCompat . You'll need to upgrade your gradle dependency for androidx.core to at least 1.6.0-alpha03 so that there will be support for setSystemBarsBehavior on SDK < 30. private fun hideSystemUI() { WindowCompat.setDecorFitsSystemWindows(window, false) WindowInsetsControllerCompat(window, mainContainer).let { controller -> controller.hide(WindowInsetsCompat.Type.systemBars()) controller.systemBarsBehavior = WindowInsetsControllerCompat.BEHAVIOR_SHOW_TRANSIENT_BARS_BY_SWIPE } } private fun showSystemUI() { WindowCompat.setDecorFitsSystemWindows(window, true) WindowInsetsControllerCompat(window, mainContainer).show(WindowInsetsCompat.

Thank God it’s officially supported after 11 years [this video] . First add dependency implementation 'androidx.core:core-ktx:1.7.0' to app gradle. Then get InsetsController from ViewCompat or WindowCompat class. Finally use hide() and show() function of InsetsController Add support for Dialog. Available in BottomSheetDialog. @Rondev. Using a safer way to get activity instead of directly cast from context. import android.app.Activity import android.app.Dialog import android.content.Context import android.content.ContextWrapper import android.view.View import androidx.core.view.ViewCompat import androidx.core.view.WindowCompat import androidx.core.view.WindowInsetsCompat import androidx.fragment.a

According to Chris Banes @ Android Developers official youtube channel [this video] use following code class MainActivity : AppCompatActivity() { private lateinit var binding: ActivityMainBinding private lateinit var view: View override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState) binding = ActivityMainBinding.inflate(layoutInflater) view = binding.root setContentView(view) } override fun onWindowFocusChanged(hasFocus: Boolean) { super.onWindowFocusChanged(hasFocus) if (hasFocus) hideSystemUI() } private fun hideSystemUI() { if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.R) { // Tell the window that we want to handle/fit any system windows WindowCompat.setDecor

I finally find solution after looking for several class. I decide to use WindowsInset because it not call every seconde like use global layout. There is a video talking about how to use windowsInset. Link [this video]

None of the solutions above solved this problem for me. I have a single activity app and after a while, of researching a solution I got solved by adding the code below to my splash screen fragment onViewCreated : WindowCompat.setDecorFitsSystemWindows(requireActivity().window, false) This code says to android that we will handle the window insets ourselves. So it doesn't adapt the layout with the status bar and the bottom navigation bar. I also added: override fun onDestroy() { WindowCompat.setDecorFitsSystemWindows(requireActivity().window, true) super.onDestroy() } Just to keep the behavior that I currently had on the rest of the app. A great resource that helped me with the solution was:

At last, I made it. The solution is using FLAG_LAYOUT_NO_LIMITS together with FLAG_FULLSCREEN to the android.view.Window [LINK] object. getWindow().addFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_FULLSCREEN | WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_LAYOUT_NO_LIMITS); This has gotten rid of both of the shadows perfectly. [LINK] lcw_gg's comment was very useful clue to manipulating android.view.Window [LINK] . Special thanks to him. Update for Android 11 Unfortunately, the problem returns when I update my phone to Android 11 (API-30). The above solution isn't effective any more. An alternate solution is @AllanVeloso's answer [LINK] using app:insetForeground="@null" And I also got a new solution. Just getting
