Dark navigation bar doesn't work

[Sondago]

Hi, i recently installed your library and when i want to "setNavigationColor" with "light bar" on true, buttons doesn't color in "black". I'm on react native v0.69. Can you help me please ?

@Sondago Can you check again with the latest version? If the problem persists, can you share sample code?

@kadiraydinli I'm having this issue too. I'm using both an Emulator with API level 29 and my own physical samsung S20+ (API level 31) . In API level 30 setSystemUiVisibility and all related constants are deprecated in favor of WindowInsetsController. I ran some tests and using this snippet it works, but I still can't understand why it does not with the old method. Maybe the bit masking is not correct ?

if (light) {
  getWindow.getDecorView()
     .getWindowInsetsController()
     .setSystemBarsAppearance(WindowInsetsController.APPEARANCE_LIGHT_NAVIGATION_BARS,
           WindowInsetsController.APPEARANCE_LIGHT_NAVIGATION_BARS
   );

} else {
   getWindow.getDecorView().getWindowInsetsController().setSystemBarsAppearance(0,
           WindowInsetsController.APPEARANCE_LIGHT_NAVIGATION_BARS
   );
}
