No Fix, Patch or Solution till now. I published my React Native CLI App on Google Play Store and I got the exact same Production Level Actionable Task:

Your app uses deprecated APIs or parameters for edge-to-edge
One or more of the APIs you use or parameters that you set for edge-to-edge and window display have been deprecated in Android 15. Your app uses the following deprecated APIs or parameters:

android.view.Window.setDecorFitsSystemWindows
android.view.Window.getStatusBarColor
android.view.Window.setStatusBarColor
android.view.Window.setNavigationBarColor
android.view.Window.getNavigationBarColor

These start in the following places:

androidx.core.view.T$b.a
com.facebook.react.modules.statusbar.StatusBarModule$b.runGuarded
com.facebook.react.modules.statusbar.StatusBarModule.getTypedExportedConstants
com.facebook.react.views.view.n.a
com.google.android.material.internal.d.a
com.swmansion.rnscreens.N$b.runGuarded
com.swmansion.rnscreens.N.m
com.swmansion.rnscreens.N.q
To fix this, migrate away from these APIs or parameters.

Are there any fix for this ? seems like i get these error

This is probably used in libraries like react-native-navigation.

Is this problem breaking any apps? causing any crashes? I have an app in review, about to go into production. And I love having a job 🥶

I can't upgrade react-native version right now, due to some deps

No crashes, Google Play offers it as a recommendation.

Do we have any solution here?

I also encountered the same problem:

"react-native": "0.78.2",

// These start in the following places:
com.facebook.react.modules.statusbar.StatusBarModule$b.runGuarded
com.facebook.react.modules.statusbar.StatusBarModule.getTypedExportedConstants
com.huawei.hms.activity.BridgeActivity.onCreate
com.swmansion.rnscreens.m.m
com.swmansion.rnscreens.m.q
com.unistyles.Platform.onSetNavigationBarColor$lambda$3$lambda$2
com.unistyles.Platform.onSetStatusBarColor$lambda$13$lambda$12

"react-native": "0.79.2",

The problem persists. I think it may be because of using library like "React-Native-Navigation".

hi,
i have the same issue.
any help / guidance appreciated.
submitted an app for review .

app used expo react native and on latest versions.
expo 53.0.17 and React native 0.79.4.

to the best of knowledge , whatever is recommended in expo is done.
for e..g.
edge to edge in enabled,
react native edge to edge is used.

specifically ,if any one who has the app published already, how these messages are effecting the status of the app , pls share your experience?
or is these messages only advisory / warning messages that does not effect the review / current status , if already published.

got the following actions recommended.

1 )Your app uses deprecated APIs or parameters for edge-to-edge

One or more of the APIs that you use or parameters that you set for edge-to-edge and window display have been deprecated in Android 15. Your app uses the following deprecated APIs or parameters:

android.view.Window.setStatusBarColor
android.view.Window.setNavigationBarColor
android.view.Window.getStatusBarColor
android.view.Window.getNavigationBarColor

These start in the following places:

A5.f.g
com.facebook.react.modules.statusbar.StatusBarModule$b.runGuarded
com.facebook.react.modules.statusbar.StatusBarModule.getTypedExportedConstants
com.facebook.react.views.view.o.e
com.google.android.material.internal.c.a
com.swmansion.rnscreens.c0$b.runGuarded
com.swmansion.rnscreens.c0.m
com.swmansion.rnscreens.c0.q

To fix this, migrate away from these APIs or parameters.

2 ) Edge-to-edge may not display for all users

From Android 15, apps targeting SDK 35 will display edge-to-edge by default. Apps targeting SDK 35 should handle insets to make sure that their app displays correctly on Android 15 and later. Investigate this issue and allow time to test edge-to-edge and make the required updates. Alternatively, call enableEdgeToEdge() for Kotlin or EdgeToEdge.enable() for Java for backward compatibility.

Yes i m on react-native-screens@latest

Please offer a solution to this issue to continue building our apps

Also here is the logs for the ones who are wondering why and where these errors coming

Google:
android.View.Window.setStatusBarColor

React-Native: Wait for the 0.81.x version because both the third-party libraries and react-native are not fully ready, so it will become clear after the 0.81.x version.

/android/gradle.properties

# This allows your app to draw behind system bars for an immersive UI.
# Note: Only works with ReactActivity and should not be used with custom Activity.
edgeToEdgeEnabled=false

Not ready for 2yo OS version. Nice.

I upgraded my app to 0.81.5. And I am still receiving these warnings from Playstore

Does somebody have any update or fix for these?

Same issue, any solution?

This issue is stale because it has been open 180 days with no activity. Remove stale label or comment or this will be closed in 7 days.

Still present on React Native 0.86.3 (Expo SDK 57). We scanned our release build's bytecode, resolved through R8's mapping, for the window APIs that Play Console's "Your app uses deprecated APIs or parameters for edge-to-edge" warning lists. These React Native call sites remain:

StatusBarModule.getTypedExportedConstants → Window.getStatusBarColor
StatusBarModule.setColor → Window.getStatusBarColor / Window.setStatusBarColor
WindowUtilKt.enableEdgeToEdge → Window.setStatusBarColor (with no version check, so it also runs on API 35+) and Window.setNavigationBarColor
WindowUtilKt.statusBarHide / statusBarShow → WindowManager.LayoutParams.layoutInDisplayCutoutMode (skipped when edge-to-edge is on, but still in the bytecode)

For comparison, Material Components now wraps its equivalent calls in SDK_INT < VANILLA_ICE_CREAM checks (material-components-android c2051db2, "Avoid calling deprecated edge-to-edge APIs on 35+"), and expo-navigation-bar does the same below API 29. Something similar here would at least stop these running on API 35+.

Still relevant on main. The only remaining call sites are in WindowUtil.kt, in enableEdgeToEdge: one setStatusBarColor and two setNavigationBarColor. I checked by scanning the RNTester release APK with dexdump. StatusBarModule.setColor went away in 0.87 with #57392, so the 0.86.3 list above is out of date.

On a window where Android 15+ enforces edge-to-edge, PhoneWindow.setStatusBarColor returns early, so that call does nothing there. setNavigationBarColor still sets the color of the 3-button navigation bar scrim. Devices below Android 15 need both calls, so a runtime guard keeps the references in the dex and the Play Console scan keeps finding them.

I have a small change ready that skips setStatusBarColor on enforced windows, with Robolectric tests and no visual change on a Pixel 8 Pro and a Mi 11 Lite. Before I open it: is a runtime-only cleanup welcome here, or do you see the remaining warning as something to document rather than to change in code?
