Thank you so much James. Needed this soo much.

You get me! I was just looking for something to explain that to me. Thanks man.

Another great useful video James, thanks 👍

Awesome, this is what I was looking for.. Thank you.

As usual another fab video - right on the money 5 thumbs up :-)

Cool , thanks for the video . Going to use some of it.

Thank so much, James!

James, Thanks

Awesome 👌

16.00 perfect time to make use of enums! public enum Themes { Default, Light, Dark }

James hi, first I'd like to thank you so much for all the great videos and knowledge you release to the community , helping us all in our development. In your examples you are using SHELL and talked about it in the videos how great it is. If at all possible I'd love to see how to do RTL on the shell "hamburger" menu. Changing the content of the menu (flyout) to RTL at runtime is not a problem - just apply "FlowDirection=RightToLeft" on the shell definition. However the "hamburger" always stays on the left. I tried using your approach and "piggybacked" on your Dynamic App Themes DI and "Forced RTL" which did the trick. However it had the unintentional results of staying RTL on all APPs even after I closed and removed the app from my phone. I should mention that I'm using an Android phone (Galaxy S10) and do not know what it looks like on an iPhone. Thanks again, Shlomi

Hi. If I background my app and change the OS to dark mode (Or Light Mode), when I come back to my app, the page is the same. If I change to a new page, it will change to the OS mode, but if I navigate back, the other page is still in the original mode.

Hey James,I followed your xamarin 101 doing my Android homework. I really apreciated you teach me so much which made me build a APP with poor C# knowledge.Although it was difficult at first, watching your video repeatedly and practicing by myself gave me a lot of gains.I will always support your video. In addition, I have a small request :Can you introduce sharpnado UI control in your video, which is the UI plug-in you put in your plug-in link. The code there is still a bit difficult for me, I think most people must also want to know how to make a beautiful interface.Thanks.

You would want to adjust this in your Shell: github.com/jamesmontemagno/MyCoffeeApp/blob/master/MyCoffeeApp/MyCoffeeApp/AppShell.xaml#L39

If using an image/logo, can I show 1 version of the image if light mode is selected, and a different color image if dark mode is selected?

Same way, you can have 2 different images and use the AppThemeBinding

How can I add the enum to get "AppThemeBinding=RedStyle". I need more themes to pick than light and dark..

@JamesMontemagno

Like I said in this case you would directly use DynamicResource for all of your colors and then set them in the code behind for each theme. You woul dnot use AppThemeBinding in this case. For example here docs.microsoft.com/en-us/xamarin/xamarin-forms/user-interface/theming/theming

Can you change the color of the status bar based on the device theme as well? So that when light mode it's white, dark mode it's black.

Hello, I followed your tutorial. But if I set the theme to Unspecified, when I load the application, it crashes saying that the binding should be done in a UI thread. If I force the theme to dark or light, it does not happen. I probably missed something, but I do not know what.

Depending on when you are running it you may want to run it on the UIThread for changes perhaps... I would need to see a repo of it or take a look at my coffee app sample and see if that works for you.

Hi James, I know this is an old video but when you do this on iOS it does not change the keyboard colours just stays in light mode.

It is your apps theme, the keyboard works off the system and what is behind it.
