## Android Styling To use the features documented here, you need to use version >= `8.2.0` and a [Expo Development build](https://docs.expo.dev/develop/development-builds/introduction/). Make changes as documented below and then run the following commands to see the updated colors: - `npx expo prebuild -p android --clean` (apply configuration to the native code) - `expo run:android` (build the native code) ### Configuration in app.json / app.config.js ```json { "expo": { "plugins": [ [ "@react-native-community/datetimepicker", { "android": { "datePicker": { "colorAccent": { "light": "#FF5722" }, "textColorPrimary": { "light": "#FF5722" } }, "timePicker": { "background": {"light": "#FF5722", "dark": "#383838"}, "numbersBackgroundColor": {"light": "#FF5722", "dark": "#383838"} } } } ] ] } } ``` It's not possible to specify a color only for dark mode. If you wish to influence dark mode color you must declare a value for both the `light` and `dark` modes. Plugin will throw an error otherwise. Plugin also validates that the color names you specify (e.g. `textColorPrimary`) are valid. ### Configurable properties The following illustrations show the different styles that can be applied to the date and time pickers. | DatePickerDialog | TimePickerDialog | | -------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------ | | ![Date picker dialog breakdown](./images/date_picker_dialog_breakdown.png) | ![Time picker breakdown](./images/time_picker_breakdown.png) | #### DatePickerDialog | Property | Attribute Name | | ---------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------ | | colorAccent | colorAccent | | colorControlActivated | colorControlActivated | | colorControlHighlight | colorControlHighlight | | selectableItemBackgroundBorderless | android:selectableItemBackgroundBorderless | | textColor | android:textColor | | textColorPrimary | android:textColorPrimary | | textColorPrimaryInverse | android:textColorPrimaryInverse | | textColorSecondary | android:textColorSecondary | | textColorSecondaryInverse | android:textColorSecondaryInverse | | windowBackground | android:windowBackground | #### TimePickerDialog | Property | Attribute Name | | ---------------------- | ------------------------------ | | background | android:background | | headerBackground | android:headerBackground | | numbersBackgroundColor | android:numbersBackgroundColor | | numbersSelectorColor | android:numbersSelectorColor | | numbersTextColor | android:numbersTextColor |
