You can do it programatically:

public class ActivityName extends Activity {
    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        // remove title
        requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);
        getWindow().setFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_FULLSCREEN,
            WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_FULLSCREEN);
        setContentView(R.layout.main);
    }
}

Or you can do it via your AndroidManifest.xml file:

<activity android:name=".ActivityName"
    android:label="@string/app_name"
    android:theme="@android:style/Theme.NoTitleBar.Fullscreen"/>

Edit:

If you are using AppCompatActivity then you need to add new theme

<style name="Theme.AppCompat.Light.NoActionBar.FullScreen" parent="@style/Theme.AppCompat.Light.NoActionBar">
    <item name="android:windowNoTitle">true</item>
    <item name="android:windowActionBar">false</item>
    <item name="android:windowFullscreen">true</item>
    <item name="android:windowContentOverlay">@null</item>
</style>

and then use it.

<activity android:name=".ActivityName"
    android:label="@string/app_name"
    android:theme="@style/Theme.AppCompat.Light.NoActionBar.FullScreen"/>

if you are using ActionBar and just want no TitleBar remove the line `requestWindowFeature()' as this will cause a NullPointer otherwise – X.X_Mass_Developer Mar 07 '14 at 14:41

On Android 4.1 (API level 16) and higher, using [setSystemUiVisibility()](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/View.html#setSystemUiVisibility(int)) to set UI flags gives you more granular control over the system bars than using WindowManager flags. – Peter Zhao Jan 20 '15 at 03:58

If you are using `AppCompatActivity`, you need to put `requestWindowFeature` before `super.onCreate`. Otherwise, you will get: `android.util.AndroidRuntimeException: requestFeature() must be called before adding content` – Slav Feb 22 '16 at 09:35

Just keep in mind that a "reminder bubble" will be displayed the first time your app enters immersive mode. This is fine for some activities, but not if you're doing a splash screen, for example. – LarsH Aug 12 '15 at 22:00

If you don't want to use the theme @android:style/Theme.NoTitleBar.Fullscreen because you are already using a theme of you own, you can use android:windowFullscreen.

In AndroidManifest.xml:

<activity
  android:name=".ui.activity.MyActivity"
  android:theme="@style/MyTheme">
</activity>

In styles.xml:

<style name="MyTheme"  parent="your parent theme">
  <item name="android:windowNoTitle">true</item>
  <item name="android:windowFullscreen">true</item> 
</style>

For AndroidX

1. Transparent Statusbar

    window?.decorView?.systemUiVisibility = (View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LAYOUT_STABLE
            or View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LAYOUT_FULLSCREEN)
    window.statusBarColor = Color.TRANSPARENT

2. Transparent Statusbar & Bottomnav bar

    window.setFlags(
        WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_LAYOUT_NO_LIMITS,
        WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_LAYOUT_IN_SCREEN
    );

3. Hide Statusbar

Recommended Compat solution for API 30+ (inclusive backwards compatibility)

  val windowInsetsController =
      WindowCompat.getInsetsController(window, window.decorView) ?: return
  windowInsetsController.systemBarsBehavior =
      WindowInsetsControllerCompat.BEHAVIOR_SHOW_TRANSIENT_BARS_BY_SWIPE
  windowInsetsController.hide(WindowInsetsCompat.Type.statusBars())

https://developer.android.com/training/system-ui/immersive

4. Hide Statubar & Bottomnav bar

API level 30:

SystemUiVisibility flags are deprecated. Use WindowInsetsController instead.

Same as 3., just use WindowInsetsCompat.Type.systemBars()

    val actionBar: ActionBar? = supportActionBar
        if (actionBar != null) actionBar.hide()

    val windowInsetsController =
        WindowCompat.getInsetsController(window, window.decorView) ?: return
    windowInsetsController.systemBarsBehavior =
        WindowInsetsControllerCompat.BEHAVIOR_SHOW_TRANSIENT_BARS_BY_SWIPE
    windowInsetsController.hide(WindowInsetsCompat.Type.systemBars())

https://developer.android.com/training/system-ui/immersive

Where to put this code ?

   override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {

        /*  Put above code here ..... */
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_slider)
   }

Note

I checked this code in Pixel 3A emulator
Maybe customise android OS not support
set style <style name="Theme.FullScreen" parent="Theme.MaterialComponents.DayNight.NoActionBar">

Thank you it worked well on some android versions but its not working on android 11: window.insetsController?.hide(WindowInsets.Type.statusBars()) } — Amin, Jun 22 '22 at 21:03
window?.decorView?.systemUiVisibility = (View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LAYOUT_STABLE or View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LAYOUT_FULLSCREEN) window.statusBarColor = Color.TRANSPARENT in this case, systemUiVisibility/SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LAYOUT_STABLE/SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LAYOUT_FULLSCREEN component are depricated — Prashant Gosai, Oct 08 '22 at 06:05

Be careful with

If you are using any method to set the action bar as the follow:

getSupportActionBar().setHomeButtonEnabled(true);

It will cause a null pointer exception.

Using Android Studio (current version is 2.2.2 at moment) is very easy to add a fullscreen activity.

See the steps:

Right click on your java main package > Select “New” > Select “Activity” > Then, click on “Fullscreen Activity”.

Customize the activity (“Activity Name”, “Layout Name” and so on) and click “finish”.

Done!

Now you have a fullscreen activity made easily (see the java class and the activity layout to know how the things works)!

First you must to set you app theme with "NoActionBar" like below

<!-- Application theme. -->
<style name="AppTheme" parent="@style/Theme.AppCompat.Light.NoActionBar" />

Then add these lines in your fullscreen activity.

public class MainActiviy extends AppCompatActivity {
    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);
        this.getWindow().setFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_FULLSCREEN,
                                  WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_FULLSCREEN);
        setContentView(R.layout.main);
    }
}

It will hide actionbar/toolbar and also statusbar in your fullscreen activity

    <item name="windowActionBar">false</item>
    <!--this property is used for hiding StatusBar-->
    <item name="android:windowFullscreen">true</item>

To hide the system navigation bar

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        getWindow().getDecorView().setSystemUiVisibility(View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_HIDE_NAVIGATION);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main)

 }

II. Your main app theme is Theme.AppCompat.Light.NoActionBar

For hide ActionBar / StatusBar
style.xml

<style name="AppTheme" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light.NoActionBar">
    ...
</style>

<style name="FullScreenTheme" parent="AppTheme">
    <!--don't need any config for hide ActionBar because our apptheme is NoActionBar-->
    <!--this property is use for hide StatusBar-->
    <item name="android:windowFullscreen">true</item> //

To hide the system navigation bar

Here is an example code. You can turn on/off flags to hide/show specific parts.

public static void hideSystemUI(Activity activity) {
    View decorView = activity.getWindow().getDecorView();
    decorView.setSystemUiVisibility(
            View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LAYOUT_STABLE
                    | View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LAYOUT_FULLSCREEN
                    //| View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LAYOUT_HIDE_NAVIGATION
                    //| View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_HIDE_NAVIGATION
                    | View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_FULLSCREEN // hide status bar
                    | View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_IMMERSIVE);
}

Then, you reset to the default state:

public static void showSystemUI(Activity activity) {
    View decorView = activity.getWindow().getDecorView();
    decorView.setSystemUiVisibility(
            View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LAYOUT_STABLE
                    | View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LAYOUT_HIDE_NAVIGATION
                    | View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LAYOUT_FULLSCREEN);
}

You can call the above functions from your onCreate:

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.course_activity);
    UiUtils.hideSystemUI(this);
}

I wanted to use my own theme instead of using @android:style/Theme.NoTitleBar.Fullscreen. But it wasn't working as some post on here had mentioned, so I did some tweaking to figure it out.

In AndroidManifest.xml:

<activity
    android:name=".ui.activity.MyActivity"
    android:theme="@style/MyTheme">
</activity>

In styles.xml:

<style name="MyTheme">
    <item name="android:windowNoTitle">true</item>
    <item name="android:windowActionBar">false</item>
    <item name="windowNoTitle">true</item>
    <item name="windowActionBar">false</item>
    <item name="android:windowFullscreen">true</item>
</style>

Note: in my case I had to use name="windowActionBar" instead of name="android:windowActionBar" before it worked properly. So I just used both to make sure in the case I need to port to a new Android version later.

To make your activity full screen do this:

    // add following lines before setContentView
    // to hide toolbar
                if(getSupportActionBar()!=null)
                    getSupportActionBar().hide();
    //to hide status bar
                getWindow().setFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_FULLSCREEN,
                    WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_FULLSCREEN);

This will hide the toolbar and status bar.

But In some case, you may want to show status bar with a transparent background, in that case, do this:

// add following lines before setContentView
// to hide toolbar
if(getSupportActionBar()!=null)
   getSupportActionBar().hide();
// to make status bar transparent
getWindow().setFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_LAYOUT_NO_LIMITS, WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_LAYOUT_NO_LIMITS);

Some other alternate to hide toolbar instead of getSupportActionBar().hide():

Remove toolbar by changing the app theme's parent:

<style name="AppTheme" parent="Theme.AppCompat.NoActionBar">

If you want to remove the toolbar from only one activity then go to manifest, under activity tag add this: android:theme="@style/Theme.AppCompat.Light.NoActionBar"

For kotlin lovers, why not use extension functions:

For first case:

fun AppCompatActivity.makeItFullScreenStatusBarVisible(){
    supportActionBar?.hide()
    window.setFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_LAYOUT_NO_LIMITS, WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_LAYOUT_NO_LIMITS)
}

And call this before setContentView:

makeItFullScreenStatusBarVisible()

For Second One:

fun AppCompatActivity.makeItFullScreenStatusBarHidden(){
    supportActionBar?.hide()
    window.setFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_FULLSCREEN, WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_FULLSCREEN)
}

And call it before setContentView:

makeItFullScreenStatusBarHidden()

TIP: Using getWindow().setLayout() can screw up your full screen display! Note the documentation for this method says:

Set the width and height layout parameters of the window... you can change them to ... an absolute value to make a window that is not full-screen.

http://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/Window.html#setLayout%28int,%20int%29

For my purposes, I found that I had to use setLayout with absolute parameters to resize my full screen window correctly. Most of the time, this worked fine. It was called by an onConfigurationChanged() event. There was a hiccup, however. If the user exited the app, changed the orientation, and reentered, it would lead to firing off my code which included setLayout(). During this re-entry time window, my status bar (which was hidden by the manifest) would be made to re-appear, but at any other time setLayout() would not cause this! The solution was to add an additional setLayout() call after the one with the hard values like so:

       public static void setSize( final int width, final int height ){
//DO SOME OTHER STUFF...
            instance_.getWindow().setLayout( width, height );
            // Prevent status bar re-appearance
            Handler delay = new Handler();
            delay.postDelayed( new Runnable(){ public void run() {
                instance_.getWindow().setLayout(
                    WindowManager.LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT,
                    WindowManager.LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT );
            }}, FILL_PARENT_ON_RESIZE_DELAY_MILLIS );
        }

The window then correctly re-sized, and the status bar did not re-appear regardless of the event which triggered this.

With kotlin this is the way I did:

class LoginActivity : AppCompatActivity() {

    override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_login)
        window.decorView.systemUiVisibility =
                View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LAYOUT_STABLE or
                View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LAYOUT_FULLSCREEN or
                View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_FULLSCREEN

    }
}

Immersive Mode

The immersive mode is intended for apps in which the user will be heavily interacting with the screen. Examples are games, viewing images in a gallery, or reading paginated content, like a book or slides in a presentation. For this, just add this lines:

View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_HIDE_NAVIGATION or
View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LAYOUT_HIDE_NAVIGATION

Sticky immersive

In the regular immersive mode, any time a user swipes from an edge, the system takes care of revealing the system bars—your app won't even be aware that the gesture occurred. So if the user might actually need to swipe from the edge of the screen as part of the primary app experience—such as when playing a game that requires lots of swiping or using a drawing app—you should instead enable the "sticky" immersive mode.

View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_IMMERSIVE_STICKY

For more information: Enable fullscreen mode

In case your using the keyboard, sometimes happens that StatusBar shows when keyboard shows up. In that case I usually add this to my style xml

styles.xml

<style name="FullScreen" parent="AppTheme">
    <item name="android:windowFullscreen">true</item>
</style>

And also this line to my manifest

<activity
        android:name=".ui.login.LoginActivity"
        android:label="@string/title_activity_login"
        android:theme="@style/FullScreen">

Use this method after setContentView in onCreate() and pass the Window object by getWindow().

    public void makeActivityFullScreen(Window window){
    View decorView = window.getDecorView();
    //        int uiOptions = View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_FULLSCREEN;
    if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.P) {
       window.getAttributes().layoutInDisplayCutoutMode = WindowManager.LayoutParams.LAYOUT_IN_DISPLAY_CUTOUT_MODE_SHORT_EDGES;
    }
    decorView.setSystemUiVisibility(View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LOW_PROFILE
            | View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_FULLSCREEN
            | View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LAYOUT_STABLE
            | View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_IMMERSIVE_STICKY
            | View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LAYOUT_HIDE_NAVIGATION
            | View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_HIDE_NAVIGATION
    );
}

This code will work for notch screen also. To check the notch fullscreen you require android P but if You have a notch display phone then go to setting-->Display setting -->app display ratio --->select your app --->there will be two options safe are display and full screen , please select the full screen and run the app, you can see the fullscreen in notch also without having android Pie

After a lot of time with no success I came with my own solution which is quit similar with another developer. So If somebody needs her it is.My problem was that system navigation bar was not hiding after calling. Also in my case I needed landscape, so just in case comment that line and that all. First of all create style

    <style name="FullscreenTheme" parent="AppTheme">
    <item name="android:actionBarStyle">@style/FullscreenActionBarStyle</item>
    <item name="android:windowActionBarOverlay">true</item>
    <item name="android:windowBackground">@null</item>
    <item name="metaButtonBarStyle">?android:attr/buttonBarStyle</item>
    <item name="metaButtonBarButtonStyle">?android:attr/buttonBarButtonStyle</item>
</style>

This is my manifest file

<activity
        android:name=".Splash"
        android:screenOrientation="landscape"
        android:configChanges="orientation|keyboard|keyboardHidden|screenLayout|screenSize"
        android:label="@string/app_name"
        android:theme="@style/SplashTheme">

        <intent-filter>
            <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />

            <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
        </intent-filter>
    </activity>

    <activity
        android:name=".MainActivity"
        android:configChanges="orientation|keyboard|keyboardHidden|screenLayout|screenSize"
        android:screenOrientation="landscape"
        android:label="@string/app_name"
        android:theme="@style/FullscreenTheme">
    </activity>

This is my spalsh activity

public class Splash extends Activity {
/** Duration of wait **/
private final int SPLASH_DISPLAY_LENGTH = 2000;

/** Called when the activity is first created. */
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle icicle) {
    super.onCreate(icicle);
    setContentView(R.layout.splash_creen);

    /* New Handler to start the Menu-Activity
     * and close this Splash-Screen after some seconds.*/
    new Handler().postDelayed(new Runnable(){
        @Override
        public void run() {
            /* Create an Intent that will start the Menu-Activity. */
            Intent mainIntent = new Intent(Splash.this,MainActivity.class);
            Splash.this.startActivity(mainIntent);
            Splash.this.finish();
        }
    }, SPLASH_DISPLAY_LENGTH);
}

}

And this is my main full screen activity. onSystemUiVisibilityChange thi method is quit important otherwise android main navigation bar after calling will stay and not disappear anymore. Really irritating problem, but this function solves that problem.

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

private View mContentView;
@Override
public void onResume(){
    super.onResume();

    mContentView.setSystemUiVisibility(View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LOW_PROFILE
            | View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_FULLSCREEN
            | View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LAYOUT_STABLE
            | View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_IMMERSIVE_STICKY
            | View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LAYOUT_HIDE_NAVIGATION
            | View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_HIDE_NAVIGATION);

}
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

    setContentView(R.layout.fullscreen2);
    ActionBar actionBar = getSupportActionBar();
    if (actionBar != null)
    {
        actionBar.hide();
    }
    mContentView = findViewById(R.id.fullscreen_content_text);
    mContentView.setSystemUiVisibility(View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LOW_PROFILE

            | View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LAYOUT_STABLE

            | View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LAYOUT_HIDE_NAVIGATION
            | View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_HIDE_NAVIGATION);



    View decorView = getWindow().getDecorView();
    decorView.setOnSystemUiVisibilityChangeListener

                    System.out.println("print");

                    if ((visibility & View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_FULLSCREEN) == 0)
                    {
                        mContentView.setSystemUiVisibility(View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LOW_PROFILE

To display content through the notch or the cutout area. This can help from the docs:

LAYOUT_IN_DISPLAY_CUTOUT_MODE_SHORT_EDGES - Content renders into the cutout area in both portrait and landscape modes.

Key thing for me was this line in the activity style:

// Important to draw through the cutouts
<item name="android:windowLayoutInDisplayCutoutMode">shortEdges</item>

For me, I wanted to show an image in immersive mode. When I click it, I want the system UI (status & navigation bars) to show up.

Here is my solution:

1- In the Activity, some methods to show/hide system UI (status/nav bars)

private fun hideSystemUI() {
    sysUIHidden = true
    window.decorView.systemUiVisibility = (
            View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_IMMERSIVE_STICKY
            or View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LAYOUT_STABLE 
            // Hide the nav bar and status bar
            or View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_HIDE_NAVIGATION // Hide nav bar
            or View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_FULLSCREEN // Hide status bar
            )
}


private fun showSystemUI() {
    sysUIHidden = false
    window.decorView.systemUiVisibility = (
            View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LAYOUT_STABLE
            // Set the content to appear under the system bars so that the
            // content doesn't resize when the system bars hide and show.
            or View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LAYOUT_HIDE_NAVIGATION // layout Behind nav bar
            or View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LAYOUT_FULLSCREEN // layout Behind status bar
            )
}

2- Make sure this in the root view of your xml layout

android:fitsSystemWindows="false"

3- Style for Full screen Activity will give status/navigation bars a semi transparent background when they show up:

<style name="FullscreenTheme" parent="AppTheme">
    <item name="android:actionBarStyle">@style/FullscreenActionBarStyle</item>
    <item name="android:windowActionBarOverlay">true</item>
    <item name="android:windowBackground">@null</item>
    <item name="metaButtonBarStyle">?android:attr/buttonBarStyle</item>
    <item name="metaButtonBarButtonStyle">?android:attr/buttonBarButtonStyle</item>
    <item name="android:statusBarColor">#50000000</item>
    <item name="android:navigationBarColor">#50000000</item>
    // Important to draw behind cutouts
    <item name="android:windowLayoutInDisplayCutoutMode">shortEdges</item>

As of 2022

    if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.R) {
        window.decorView.windowInsetsController?.hide(WindowInsets.Type.systemBars())
    } else {
        @Suppress("DEPRECATION") // Older API support

just call this fun :

private fun changeScreenSystemUiController(isFullScreen: Boolean) {
    window?.also {
        WindowCompat.setDecorFitsSystemWindows(it, !isFullScreen)
        WindowCompat.getInsetsController(it, it.decorView).apply {
            systemBarsBehavior =
                if (isFullScreen)
                    WindowInsetsControllerCompat.BEHAVIOR_SHOW_TRANSIENT_BARS_BY_SWIPE
                else
                    WindowInsetsControllerCompat.BEHAVIOR_SHOW_BARS_BY_TOUCH
            if (isFullScreen)
                hide(WindowInsetsCompat.Type.systemBars())
            else
                show(WindowInsetsCompat.Type.systemBars())
        }
        if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.P) {

On Android 10, none worked for me.

But I that worked perfectly fine (1st line in oncreate):

    View decorView = getWindow().getDecorView();
    int uiOptions = View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_IMMERSIVE;
    decorView.setSystemUiVisibility(uiOptions);

    setContentView(....);

    if (getSupportActionBar() != null) {
        getSupportActionBar().hide();
    }

enjoy :)

Found solution from mozilla, they made an extension library here

In case link breakes here is the code


/**
 * Retrieves a {@link WindowInsetsControllerCompat} for the top-level window decor view.
 */
fun Window.getWindowInsetsController(): WindowInsetsControllerCompat {
    return WindowInsetsControllerCompat(this, this.decorView)
}


/**
 * Attempts to call immersive mode using the View to hide the status bar and navigation buttons.
 * @param onWindowFocusChangeListener optional callback to ensure immersive mode is stable
 * Note that the callback reference should be kept by the caller and be used for [exitImmersiveModeIfNeeded] call.
 */
fun Activity.enterToImmersiveMode(
    onWindowFocusChangeListener: ViewTreeObserver.OnWindowFocusChangeListener? = null
) {
    window.addFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_KEEP_SCREEN_ON)
    window.getWindowInsetsController().apply {
        hide(WindowInsetsCompat.Type.systemBars())
        systemBarsBehavior = WindowInsetsControllerCompat.BEHAVIOR_SHOW_TRANSIENT_BARS_BY_SWIPE
    }

    // We need to make sure system bars do not become permanently visible after interactions with content
    // see https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/fenix/issues/20240
    onWindowFocusChangeListener?.let {
        window.decorView.viewTreeObserver?.addOnWindowFocusChangeListener(it)
    }
}

/**
 * Attempts to come out from immersive mode using the View.
 * @param onWindowFocusChangeListener optional callback to ensure immersive mode is stable
 * Note that the callback reference should be kept by the caller and be the same used for [enterToImmersiveMode] call.
 */
@Suppress("DEPRECATION")
fun Activity.exitImmersiveModeIfNeeded(
    onWindowFocusChangeListener: ViewTreeObserver.OnWindowFocusChangeListener? = null
) {
    if (WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_KEEP_SCREEN_ON and window.attributes.flags == 0) {
        // We left immersive mode already.
        return
    }
    onWindowFocusChangeListener?.let {
        window.decorView.viewTreeObserver?.removeOnWindowFocusChangeListener(it)
    }
    window.clearFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_KEEP_SCREEN_ON)
    window.getWindowInsetsController().apply {

Please describe your solution. New users probably don't know where to put this. – Jan Heinrich Reimer Feb 21 '16 at 12:25
you can put it in onCreate of your activity – Shyam Sep 04 '18 at 10:45
