Feature Request: Theme support for Android 12/Google's Material You theming

[krille-chan]

Forgive me, this is mostly a copy/paste from my feature Request for element-android.

Description

In Android 12, Google has added support for Material You, which automatically picks colors for apps/settings/notifications based on your home wallpaper.

https://www.xda-developers.com/material-you/

Describe the solution you'd like.

For FluffyChat to support Material You on Android 12.

Describe alternatives you've considered.

No alternatives.

Additional context

Google has not yet published third-party docs on how to accomplish this, but several apps have already reverse-engineered support on their own.

There is also a library that can be packaged into an app.

It also sounds like Flutter's SDK will be ready for this in short order.

Can this be reopened? I know you can have material you accents but I'd love a full material you theme with the background and everything. You can use https://pub.dev/packages/dynamic_color.

@krille-chan please can this be reopened?

@krille-chan please can this be reopened?

Why? This is implemented. It has dynamic colors and also colors the background

Oh, it doesn't color the background for me, only stuff on top of it like FABs. Is this a bug, should I open a new issue?

[krille-chan]

it does color the background. You just need to compare it to complete white

[Henry-Hiles]

Well I'm in dark mode, but if the accent colours do change the background it's by a tiny amount. Can we have the same background shade as other apps?
