Were you able to find an answer to this?

Changing the MainActivity.ks file to this:

package // Keep the old value here

import android.os.Bundle
import androidx.core.view.WindowCompat

class MainActivity : TauriActivity() {
  override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
    WindowCompat.setDecorFitsSystemWindows(window, false)
  }
}

and adding this to the theme file (i forgot its path)

<item name="android:statusBarColor" tools:targetApi="l">@android:color/transparent</item>

should mostly work.

A problem with this is opening the keyboard doesn't shift the layout so if you have input fields at the bottom half of the screen they won't be visibile anymore. I did not look into how to best solve this yet.

If not doing the code that fits the screen size, you can just replace the '@android:color/transparent' part with your own hexcode, to change the color of the statusbar.

i think it's still working, yes. i did not hear any reports saying otherwise.
