I tried changing from adafruit_st7735 library to tft_espi, which often error always in this part. What is this code change?
Compilation error: 'class TFT_eSPI' has no member named 'getTextBounds'; did you mean 'setTextFont'?

void drawText(const String& text, int x, int y, uint16_t textColor, uint16_t backgroundColor, uint8_t alpha = DEFAULT_ALPHA, int charSpacing = DEFAULT_CHAR_SPACING) {
  int16_t x1, y1;
  uint16_t w, h;
  
  // If no character spacing, use original method
  if (charSpacing == 0) {
    // Get text bounds
    tft.getTextBounds(text, x, y, &x1, &y1, &w, &h);

    // Add padding for background - INCREASE THIS PADDING
    int padding = 4; // Increased from 2 to 4
    
    // Draw background with transparency - CLEAN WIDER AREA
    fillRectAlpha(tft, x1 - padding, y1 - padding, w + 2 * padding, h + 2 * padding, backgroundColor, alpha);
    
    // Draw text on top
    tft.setTextColor(textColor);
    tft.setCursor(x, y);
    tft.print(text);
  } 
  else {
    // For custom spacing approach
    
    // Get measurements for first character to set font metrics
    char firstChar = text.length() > 0 ? text.charAt(0) : 'X';
    String firstCharStr(firstChar);
    tft.getTextBounds(firstCharStr, 0, 0, &x1, &y1, &w, &h);
    
    // Calculate estimated total width - MAKE THIS WIDER FOR SAFETY
    int totalWidth = 0;
    for (int i = 0; i < text.length(); i++) {
      char c = text.charAt(i);
      String charStr(c);
      int16_t cx1, cy1;
      uint16_t cw, ch;
      tft.getTextBounds(charStr, 0, 0, &cx1, &cy1, &cw, &ch);
      totalWidth += cw + (i < text.length() - 1 ? charSpacing : 0);
    }
    
    // Add extra width to ensure full clearing
    totalWidth += 10; // Add extra pixels to ensure full clearing
    
    // Draw background area first - INCREASE PADDING
    int padding = 4; // Increased from 2 to 4
    fillRectAlpha(tft, x - padding, y + y1 - padding, totalWidth + 2 * padding, h + 2 * padding, backgroundColor, alpha);
    
    // Now draw each character with spacing
    tft.setTextColor(textColor);
    int currentX = x;
    
    for (int i = 0; i < text.length(); i++) {
      char c = text.charAt(i);
      tft.setCursor(currentX, y);
      tft.print(c);
      
      // Get width of this specific character
      String charStr(c);
      int16_t cx1, cy1;
      uint16_t cw, ch;
      tft.getTextBounds(charStr, 0, 0, &cx1, &cy1, &cw, &ch);
      
      // Move to next character position with spacing
      currentX += cw + charSpacing;
    }
  }
}

Somewhere in the code you did not post (look in the .h and .cpp) is library function, getTextBounds
