How can i achieve displaying the bottombar on top of the soft keyboard in android compose?

Question

Im not sure on how i can place the bottombar ontop of the keyboard when its visible

i want the bottombar to show at that position when the keyboard is up

presently the keyboard overlay the bottombar making it difficult to access the bottombar stylings

Answer 1

Use Modifier.imePadding() on your bottomBar, this will always keep the bottomBar above the keyboard when it's visible.

BottomAppBar(modifier = Modifier.imePadding()) {}
