The first apps to use Android 12’s Material You theming are here

While native theming on Android is a concept Google has been flirting with for years, even going so far as to add support for a system-wide dark theme, full-on theming to the degree other services like Substratum and other theming engines used to have. With Android 12 and Google’s new Material You design language, though, they’re getting much closer to that goal. Using Material You, Google’s design language has gotten much more diverse and customizable, but it’s going to be a while before we see it adopted in a widespread manner across app developers. The good news, though, is that it’s getting there. A handful of Android apps are now getting support for Material You theming in time for the third Android 12 beta.

Last month, Tasker’s developer demonstrated Material You theming in his app, but he couldn’t submit a beta version for API level 31 (Android 12) until the release of Android 12 Beta 3 the other day. And, as reported by Android Police, Sleep as Android is another app that now supports Material You dynamic colors. Last but not least, SwiftWalls is the third app to add support for dynamic theming. The developer contacted reached out to XDA to inform us that his app’s current beta version now has support for Material You dynamic theming.

Developers slowly adding support for Material You theming is excellent news for people looking forward to customizing their phones with it once they have Android 12, or even those who are already using it on their phones. In case you need a refresher, Material You pulls colors from your device’s wallpaper and applies them all over your user interface, centering its design language around this particular concept as well as the concept of customization. Not all apps will likely add support for it in the short run, though: probably a few of them will want to impose their own design language over Android’s. But still, it will greatly help with design consistency once app developers start implementing it.
