Change UIPopoverView background + arrow color

Question

Is there a way to simply change the UIPopoverView background color (including its arrow) on iOS8?

(I did read a couple of articles on customizing \"UIPopove

Seems like that popoverPresentationController.backgroundColor no longer works in iOS13.

Popover arrows now appear to take on the color of the popover viewController's view.backgroundColor.

Here's the whole code for the demo below:

override func prepare(for segue: UIStoryboardSegue, sender: Any?) {
    if let sourceButton = sender as? UIButton, let popover = segue.destination.popoverPresentationController {
        popover.sourceView = sourceButton.superview
        popover.sourceRect = sourceButton.frame
        popover.permittedArrowDirections = [.left]
        popover.delegate = self
        segue.destination.preferredContentSize = CGSize(width: 100, height: 100)
        //popover.backgroundColor = sourceButton.tintColor  //old way
        segue.destination.view.backgroundColor = sourceButton.tintColor  //new way
    }
}

@IBAction func btnTap(_ sender: Any) {
    performSegue(withIdentifier: "popoverSegue", sender: sender)
}

func adaptivePresentationStyle(for controller: UIPresentationController) -> UIModalPresentationStyle {
    return .none
}
