Material You. I wondered why they wasted resources for … colors. But it’s so nice to have a consistently colored UI across apps and across dark/light modes, and I wished that more apps would support it. Also, those pastel colors are less stressful for the eyes than the previous grey/blue.
I know it’s not everyone’s taste but I really like it.
I have to respectfully disagree here. I would like to be able to choose what that color is. I HATE when I use a picture of my orange cat for a background and all my apps are brown.
If there’s some way to override it and choose your own color, I haven’t found it.
Look into the app Repainter. It isn’t free and needs root or Shizuku access but does the trick.
You can choose from several colors, not just your background colors.
Go to Wallpaper & Style > Basic colors. (on a Pixel; it might be slightly different on other phones)
Thanks for the tip! Unfortunately, I don’t think it’s an option in OxygenOS. I think I’ve tried LWP+ before and it didn’t work. I might give it another shot, though.
As for now, I’ve got a picture of my calico cat as my home screen wallpaper. She’s very white up front so it’s more bluish. I like it. My orange boy is my lock screen. So it works out.
I honestly just want it all pitch black because menus on an OLED look fantastic when the background is black. I believe I already had everything blacked out before the update.
