![]() ![]() Material 3 color schemes are defined by tonality rather than hue or hex value, this system of tonal palettes is central to making any color system accessible by default. Dynamic color is committed to guaranteeing that the color selection model has accessibility requirements built in. Dynamic color implementation with Compose is also available.Įnsuring your app’s color system is accessible is critical for designing for everyone and creating products that are inclusive to the widest possible audience. It is also worth reviewing if there are redundant colors in your existing scheme or an opportunity to make a more consistent color scheme throughout your app. This is also a good opportunity to review your current colors.xml, themes.xml and particular check that your app correctly differentiates between Styles and Themes as well as correctly extending from base themes. Engineering should align with UX to review the new color token system with your mocks. Your app may already have a color token system, so reviewing how the new Material You dynamic color enabled color scheme matches your previous naming convention is an important exercise. This is particularly powerful when considering designing for light and dark themes and dynamic color.įigure 1 : An example surface for Chrome, the Tab Switcher, identifying the color token for each element Material 3 encourages designers and developers to use color tokens which enable flexibility and consistency across an app by allowing designers to assign an element's color role in a UI, rather than a set value. Chrome kicked off a design review and evaluated their color scheme. Start by reviewing all your current screens in your app and identify your current colors, themes and surfaces. Here’s what they suggest if you are considering adopting dynamic color in your app. We talked to designers and developers on Google Chrome, and they offered to share some tips on how they approached it at scale for their Android app. But creating a scalable, personalized, and accessible app with dynamic color can feel like a daunting task. With the release of Android 12 and Material You, we provided documentation and guidance on dynamic color foundations, how to implement dynamic color in Jetpack Compose and a getting started codelab.
