Answer 1

Please refer this,

kotlin.TypeCastException: null cannot be cast to non-null type com.midsizemango.databasekotlin.Note

In your case try this:

val isArmed = dataSnapshot.value as? Boolean

Answer 2

Try this in onDataChange(..)

     if(dataSnapshot.value != null) {          
          val isArmed = dataSnapshot.value as Boolean
          toggleUIState(isArmed)
     }
