Feature description
I would like an option to force white buttons on the now playing screen. Currently I’ve figured out a method to perfectly replicate the like/more buttons of a certain fruit company’s streaming service, however this customisation can only be done with a custom theme as forcing a white background for those buttons also inverts the buttons’ colours. Having the option to force would help to eliminate this hassle especially for people who would rather use the apps material colors rather than a custom theme.
Problem solved
It would eliminate the following problems:
A. Having to create a complicated theme in order to enjoy a singular benefit.
B. Having to deal with off looking UI elements due to these elements sharing the same theme module as the button background.
Brought benefits
It brings the following benefits.
A. It adds a new simple customization layer that solves an otherwise complicated issue.
B. It also provides an option to curb the problem of buttons turning black with bright album covers when using the blur background style.
Other application solutions
Apple music and it’s various clones provide this option as an unchangeable standard.
Device type
Phone
Additional description and context
Screenshot 1 is what the player/buttons currently looks like with the correct button background color (white).
Screenshot 2 is my MacGuyver solution in the themes section.
Screenshot 3 is what the player/buttons looks like with my theme settings applied.
Screenshot 4 is what the now playing screen looks like with black buttons caused by a bright cover art and blurred background.
Screenshot 5 is what happens to the library page ui elements as a result of my settings.
Screenshot 6 is what the homepage UI elements look like with my settings. For this particular one, the shadows at the bottom of the UI elements in Album Replay 2026 and Favourite Artists, are supposed to be black when using a material color theme rather than my custom version.
