From the documentation  Warning  Starting from Android Build VERSION CODES R  for apps targeting API level Build VERSION CODES R or higher  this method  setGravity  is a no-op when called on text toasts  Which means that setGravity can no longer be used in API 30  and will have to find another to achieve the required behaviour

You can customize the location of your Toast by using   setGravity int gravity  int xOffset  int yOffset    docs  This allows you to be very specific about where you want the location of your Toast to be   One of the most useful things about the xOffset and yOffset parameters is that you can use them to place the Toast relative to a certain View   For example  if you want to make a custom Toast that appears on top of a Button  you could create a function like this      v is the Button view that you want the Toast to appear above     and messageId is the id of your string resource for the message  private void displayToastAboveButton View v  int messageId        int xOffset   0      int yOffset   0      Rect gvr   new Rect         View parent    View  v getParent         int parentHeight   parent getHeight         if  v getGlobalVisibleRect gvr                         View root   v getRootView             int halfWidth   root getRight     2          int halfHeight   root getBottom     2           int parentCenterX     gvr right - gvr left    2    gvr left           int parentCenterY     gvr bottom - gvr top    2    gvr top           if  parentCenterY  lt   halfHeight                         yOffset   - halfHeight - parentCenterY  - parentHeight                    else                        yOffset    parentCenterY - halfHeight  - parentHeight                     if  parentCenterX  lt  halfWidth                                  xOffset   - halfWidth - parentCenterX                              if  parentCenterX  gt   halfWidth                         xOffset   parentCenterX - halfWidth                         Toast toast   Toast makeText getActivity    messageId  Toast LENGTH SHORT       toast setGravity Gravity CENTER  xOffset  yOffset       toast show

From the documentation      Positioning your Toast      A standard toast notification appears near the bottom of the screen    centered horizontally  You can change this position with the   setGravity int  int  int  method  This accepts three parameters  a   Gravity constant  an x-position offset  and a y-position offset       For example  if you decide that the toast should appear in the   top-left corner  you can set the gravity like this   toast setGravity Gravity TOP Gravity LEFT  0  0         If you want to nudge the position to the right  increase the value of   the second parameter  To nudge it down  increase the value of the last   parameter
