    Ah that’s why Sync looks so ugly with it’s off-red color to everything? Damn. Do you know whether I can turn that off?

      It is probably basing the colour scheme on your background? You can turn this off in the theme settings.

      Sync uses Material You. It’s using the colors of your wallpaper. And you can customize the theme manually on settings. Here's how it looks for me, for example.

        wallpaper… i am always surprised that people give a shit and set a wallpaper on a mobile device…

        in any case, thanks for the feedback, that is an interesting setting.

          Why wouldn’t you set a wallpaper? It’s a good way to personalize your phone and make it unique

            Because I would never see it. Either I want an app so I am looking for that, or using an app, so I am looking at that. Black saves battery and makes it easy to see what I want.

            It’s interesting thinking about it, I have very simple wallpaper on my linux desktop (no photo just very slowly changing shape/color pattern, but I do not have icons on the desktop at all. I turned that functionality off.

            I wonder if I would think differently about my phone if I didn’t have icons to interact with on the screen?

          Customization is a big selling point after all. Just see how much hype there was for iOS 15 only because you could finally customize the lock screen.

      It’s basing the color scheme based on the main accent color you choose.

      Set it to blue and set the intensity to minimum, and you’re good. Ideally paired with AMOLED black mode and extra powerful dark mode.
