Change background color of Button in Android

I'm trying to change the color of a button, but it doesn't work.

btn_sign_in.xml

<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
    <corners android:radius="23dp" />
    <size android:height="16dp" />
    <solid android:color="#045762" />
</shape>

and I gave android:background="@drawable/btn_sign_in" in the button xml.

You don't need to use a custom background.
Just use:

    <com.google.android.material.button.MaterialButton
        app:cornerRadius="23dp"
        app:backgroundTint="#045762"
        android:text="BUTTON"
        .../>

enter image description here

You can change the background color like this.

<Button
    android:background="@android:color/green"
    android:textColor="@android:color/white" />

XML:

<Button
android:background="@android:color/white"
android:textColor="@android:color/black"/>

Programmatically:

btn.setBackgroundColor(Color.WHITE);
btn.setTextColor(Color.BLACK);

hi have you tried app:backgroundTint="#045762", this will work in may cases but if u have to use a drawable then do this

app:backgroundTint="@null"
android:background="@drawable/btn_sign_in"

When using MatertialComponents Background tint will be given priority over the background and in your case, you can try to pass color directly as backgroundTint

also check out MaterialButton from MaterialComponents
