What colors are you expecting to change it to? Could you share some screenshots of the iOS app so we can get an idea of how it works there?

jpelgrom commented 2 years ago

I believe this is a feature natively supported by iOS (see home-assistant/ios#183 and linked PR) which isn't available on Android. I've seen Pocket Casts on Android try something similar but always end up with multiple icons in my app drawer.

Just saw this article, made me think of this request

I would love to see someone try this again. I just saw it on a friend's I-Phone, just to see that Android doesn't support it yet. Though many other apps already do (like Signal, Telegram, etc..)
