With Android 12, Google introduced new Material You design which is an upgraded Material 2.0 design with dynamic touch ripple, a silky-smooth scroll, and a spacious layout. The best part is the new wallpaper-based theme engine where various elements of Android system will be applied an Accent color based on the phone’s wallpaper you have set.

This is called dynamic color. You can pick your favorite wallpaper and the entire phone experience transforms to better express you, from your home screen to some of your favorite apps. This feature is now embedded into Nova Launcher 8. See the following image for reference.

While Material You was launched with the Pixel 6 series, various OEMs have adopted their own version of their custom skin including Samsung’s One UI, OnePlus’ Oxygen OS, Color OS, MIUI, and more.

Custom launcher users like Nova Launcher were feeling left out as it didn’t support this new wallpaper-based theme engine. The good news is, the latest version of Nova Launcher beta features the new Material You design. This will set custom color schemes to the launcher based on the wallpaper colors.

The official Nova Launcher Twitter account posted the following:
