It does, in your wallpaper settings on the FP5. It’s part of native Android.

Did anyone already get the update? And could you share your experience with it?

A first, isn’t it? :thinking:

So far everything seems to be working at least as fine as before the update. Also the screen is a lot brighter after the reboot, so that’s a good sign I guess. :smiley:

There’s a tiny red dot in the top right of the CAMERA app icon (both on home screen and in the app drawer). Was it there before or is there anything new indicated this way?

As I’m playing with the automatic brightness at the moment maybe a little UI feedback: It’s really hard to distingush the two colors of the small button that indicates wether the automatic brightness is on/off (at least in dark mode) imo.

Might depend on “your button colouring” , mine are light blue turning light rose grey and it seem to be better visible as in your example

I’ve never knowingly changed the default. Maybe ensuring that the active and the passive colour are not too similar for each (automatically selected) colour scheme would be nice.

Thats influenced by your wallpaper and you can just change it, since the upgrade even better. “Off” is always light grey so this does not change

I managed to find an okay-ish accent color in the Wallpaper settings that more or less mitigates this problem.

So, the update is installed. But where do I find these ‘themed app icons’ and ‘new media controls’?

For the icons navigate to ‘Wallpaer > Wallpaper and Style > Themed Icons’:

On my device not all apps are supported yet though, so it leaves a weird speckled pattern of differently colored icons among the uniformly themed ones.

For comparison:

That is a mistake imo. Maybe a feature to keep some minimal amount of contrast for all colors of autogenerated color schemes could be added in a futire update. Its not critical in any way, but would be nice to have imo.
