I built a maker project for mobile, but the Ignition Perspective App on android has this static dark blue color on my phone's status/notification bar. It doesn't go well with my themes' colors I have chosen and it is driving me crazy. Is there a way to change this color?

Hi Jen,

I don't have an android so I can't speak into this issue directly (I'll see if I can test this out later this week if there are no other android users around). Normally I would recommend using [Co-Branding](https://docs.inductiveautomation.com/display/DOC81/Perspective+Co-Branding), but this is currently only available for Ignition Standard and Cloud.

I did get a chance to test this with co-branding and Ignition Standard and unfortunately was unable to change the color of the top bar...it looks like it is a part of the mobile app and is not configurable. The rest of your application looks really cool though!

@Joe_Seph thank you for looking into it! It's not the end of the world, but would be cool if that ever gets to be configurable, and if co-branding came to Maker so I can configure the loading screen and such. And thank you for the compliment! It's a project I built to keep track of care for my collection of indoor plants at home.
