How can I make the status bar white with black icons?

Question

I want to change the colour of the status bar for my app so that it\'s white with black icons (instead of the default black with white icons). Is there any way of doing this

Answer 1

It is possible to make the white status bar with grey icons e.g. this way for SDK >= 23 (see docs):

in your styles.xml and set the colorPrimary to white or programmatically:

getWindow().setStatusBarColor(Color.WHITE);
