Being a Pixel user I'm like sheesh that's a lot of work to have a phone similar to mine. However it's very worth it and similar if you don't have a Pixel. Really cool love the customization android offers.

[@nightshadesalad]

I thought the reason other OEMs don't have a lot of these pixel exclusive features is because Google hasn't made them open source yet. Everything I read said things like dynamic color wouldn't be made open source until the Android 12.1 update. Even Samsung's implementation of dynamic theming doesn't use material you.

[@osamashaher3772]

Nope, not true. I'm currently on Miui 13 where dynamic theming is a thing. Just today I changed my wallpaper to something red/pink and that color carried over to every Google app I have, including messages, Gmail, Photos, Keep etc

[@LuLeBe]

Google basically stopped making their features open source, it's not a question of when, rather if they ever do it. They only open source what they absolutely need to, mostly the things that require app developers to do something (like material you colors, which no app would adapt if it was only available on Pixel). With Nexus, they wanted to give Android OEMs ideas for good new features. With Pixel, they compete with OEMs and restrict features that absolutely don't have to be restricted.

[@steriftes]

Is samsung implementation isn't material u? Now i understand why oneui has less apps to support monet icon even after the 5.1 updates.

[@MaxCE]

material you isn't a software it's a design phylosophy that Google created. although the implementation is open source since I'm on phh treble and it has material design

[@nightshadesalad]

@@MaxCEMy comment is over a year old, back when the monet theming wasn't made available on AOSP. Yes, it is part of AOSP now.

Well for Xiaomi Devices doesnt't work that great, because by default the system disables gesture navigation when another launcher is active. Also there's a bug with recent apps when you use another launcher as well :((

What he says works.... Even if you have miui devices. But if you are a fan of full screen gestures ( that is without the bottom buttons ) then prepare to lose it since miui's full screen gestures only works with their own launcher and forces us to change to their launcher if we have chosen a new one like Nova or lawnchair or any third-party launcher. There is indeed a way to have full screen gestures even after changing launcher. That's by downloading another third party app. But there also you have to grant access to multiple permissions
