I'd love to solve this issue, but there is no AndroidX version of this yet, this would require a SDK_INT check...

The result would look something like this:

if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.R) {
    window.insetsController?.apply {
        systemBarsBehavior = WindowInsetsController.BEHAVIOR_SHOW_BARS_BY_SWIPE
        hide(WindowInsets.Type.systemBars())
    }
} else {
    window.decorView.systemUiVisibility = (View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LAYOUT_STABLE
        or View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LAYOUT_HIDE_NAVIGATION
        or View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_LAYOUT_FULLSCREEN
        or View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_HIDE_NAVIGATION
        or View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_FULLSCREEN
        or View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_IMMERSIVE_STICKY)
}

If it is acceptable, I can solve this :)

@ForceTower sure you could assign it yourself :), feel free to open a draft PR to get early feedback, this video from https://youtu.be/acC7SR1EXsI?t=161 the Android YouTube channel contains some good tips :)

@Amejia481, @ForceTower If there are more deprecations in the same extensions file I think maybe they should be handled in this issue as well. It will make tracking of all issues easier.

Currently the core-ktx version 1.5.0, which has the WindowCompat API, is still in beta.
Once it is reaches stable I'll update the PR using the new API and remove deprecated calls.
