setEnabledSystemUIOverlays is deprecated and shouldn't be used. Migrate to setEnabledSystemUIMode

Question

I was using the following code to show only status bar.

SystemChrome.setEnabledSystemUIOverlays([
  SystemUiOverlay.top
])

but it started giving me a warning:

setEnabledSystemUIOverlays is deprecated and shouldn't be used. Migrate to setEnabledSystemUIMode.

So, how do I fix it?

Answer 1

Use setEnabledSystemUIMode and provide SystemUiMode.manual as shown below:

SystemChrome.setEnabledSystemUIMode(SystemUiMode.manual, overlays: [
  SystemUiOverlay.top
]);

You can also use SystemUiMode

1. Hide both overlays:

   SystemChrome.setEnabledSystemUIMode(SystemUiMode.immersiveSticky);
   

2. Show both overlays:

   SystemChrome.setEnabledSystemUIMode(SystemUiMode.edgeToEdge);
   

Answer 2

Use setEnabledSystemUIMode instead of setEnabledSystemUIOverlays. Example:

  SystemChrome.setEnabledSystemUIOverlays([SystemUiOverlay.bottom, SystemUiOverlay.top]);

change it to:

  SystemChrome.setEnabledSystemUIMode(SystemUiMode.manual, overlays: [SystemUiOverlay.bottom, SystemUiOverlay.top]);
