Kotlin extension function:

@SuppressLint("RestrictedApi")
fun BottomNavigationView.removeShiftMode(){
    val menuView = this.getChildAt(0) as BottomNavigationMenuView
    try {
        val shiftingMode = menuView.javaClass.getDeclaredField("mShiftingMode")
        shiftingMode.isAccessible = true
        shiftingMode.setBoolean(menuView, false)
        shiftingMode.isAccessible = false
        for (i in 0 until menuView.childCount) {
            val item = menuView.getChildAt(i) as BottomNavigationItemView
            item.setShiftingMode(false)
            // set once again checked value, so view will be updated
            item.setChecked(item.itemData.isChecked)
        }
    } catch (e: NoSuchFieldException) {
        e.printStackTrace()
        Timber.tag("BottomNav").e( e, "Unable to get shift mode field")
    } catch (e: IllegalAccessException) {
        Timber.tag("BottomNav").e( e, "Unable to change value of shift mode")
    }
}
