Android: inverted color on dark mode

I have troubles with some imageview on certain Android phones.

It seems that the dark mode invert the color of certains assets (not all, it seems only black/dark gray ones)

An example.

Image on light/normal mode (correct)

Image on dark mode

I cannot find a way to avoid this. Is there some kind of properties that protect the image from being inverted?

you can use setForceDarkAllowed(false) if you just want to apply this to one View.

Or you can change the attributes/colors in your res/values-night folder, which holds all colors that are used in case the dark mode is activated.

You can disable Dark mode on your app by using:

AppCompatDelegate.setDefaultNightMode(AppCompatDelegate.MODE_NIGHT_NO)

If you want to disable it on a view, you can

  1. Use light style for a specific view

  2. Use android:forceDarkAllowed="false"
