Google is reportedly planning to make dynamic theming a requirement for all Android 12 phones.
There’s a lot to love about the Google Pixel 6 range, but one of the absolute best things about these phones is how their software looks, with Google’s Material You design language allowing users to customize the interface colors to complement their phone’s wallpaper. Soon, that same feature could be coming to a whole lot of other phones. You see, this dynamic theming isn’t an essential part of Android, and as a result most manufacturers aren’t using it for their devices, even when running Android 12, but according to a “trusted source” speaking to Android Police, Google will soon require it. They claim that from March 14, Google will start requiring any phones or tablets that ship with or upgrade to Android 12 to offer this feature.
