   Adding this to your application will fix it in all classes:

     registerActivityLifecycleCallbacks(object : ActivityLifecycleCallbacks {
               override fun onActivityCreated(activity: Activity, savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
                   // 1️⃣ Opt out of the old fitsSystemWindows behaviour
                   WindowCompat.setDecorFitsSystemWindows(activity.window, false)
   
                   // 2️⃣ Grab the root content view
                   val content = activity.findViewById<View>(android.R.id.content)
   
                   // 3️⃣ Listen for all system‐bar insets and apply them as padding
                   ViewCompat.setOnApplyWindowInsetsListener(content) { view, insets ->
                       val sysBars = insets.getInsets(WindowInsetsCompat.Type.systemBars())
                       view.updatePadding(
                           top    = 0,              // DON'T push content below status bar (content goes under it)
                           bottom = sysBars.bottom  // DO push content above the nav/gesture bar
                       )
                       WindowInsetsCompat.CONSUMED
                   }
                   ViewCompat.requestApplyInsets(content)
               }
   
               // the rest can be no‑ops
               override fun onActivityStarted(activity: Activity)            = Unit
               override fun onActivityResumed(activity: Activity)            = Unit
               override fun onActivityPaused(activity: Activity)             = Unit
               override fun onActivityStopped(activity: Activity)            = Unit
               override fun onActivitySaveInstanceState(activity: Activity, outState: Bundle) = Unit
               override fun onActivityDestroyed(activity: Activity)          = Unit
           })
   

   or you can simply add this line separately:
   WindowCompat.setDecorFitsSystemWindows(window, true)
