Show Toast above keyboard

You can change toast postion by following code.

Toast toast= Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), 
"Your string here", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT);  
toast.setGravity(Gravity.TOP|Gravity.CENTER_HORIZONTAL, 0, 0);
toast.show();

More than 3 years later... and Android has finally an API

As shown detailed by Chris Banes we now can use the WindowInsets API

The core API to solve a Toast above soft keyboard are:

val insets = ViewCompat.getRootWindowInsets(view) // get insets
val imeVisible = insets.isVisible(Type.ime()) // is keyboard visible?
val imeHeight = insets.getInsets(Type.ime()).bottom // voila, your offset

So I build an extension function to Toast:

/**
 * Shows toast above soft keyboard, if exists
 */
 fun Toast.showAboveKeyboard(containerView: View) {

   // get y offset to let toast appear above soft keyboard
   val insets = ViewCompat.getRootWindowInsets(containerView)
   val imeVisible = insets?.isVisible(WindowInsetsCompat.Type.ime()) ?: false
   val imeHeight = insets?.getInsets(WindowInsetsCompat.Type.ime())?.bottom
   val fallbackYOffset = containerView.resources.getDimensionPixelOffset(R.dimen.thirtytwo_grid_unit)
   val noSoftKeyboardYOffset =
    containerView.resources.getDimensionPixelOffset(R.dimen.three_grid_unit)
   setGravity(
        Gravity.CENTER_HORIZONTAL or Gravity.BOTTOM,
        0,
        if (imeVisible) imeHeight ?: fallbackYOffset else noSoftKeyboardYOffset
   )
   show()
}

Usage in a fragment:

Toast.makeText(requireContext(), "Hello Toast", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT)
     .showAboveKeyboard(requireView())

Happy Toast!
