Answer 1

simplest solution without changing xml and keeping translucent system bar is to add: kotlin:

toolbar.setOnApplyWindowInsetsListener { toolbar, windowInsets ->
    toolbar.updatePadding(
        windowInsets.systemWindowInsetLeft, 
        windowInsets.systemWindowInsetTop,
        windowInsets.systemWindowInsetRight,
        0
    )
    windowInsets.consumeSystemWindowInsets()
}

please check if your fitsSystemWindows=true are placed correctly.
