Is that a Google launcher issue? I'm using Nova Launcher and my apps are still all different colors, the app icons don't use the material you color.
it's a google launcher "feature".
it's only available on a13, i think, and not all launchers support it. but it is part of the m3 design language, so i included it as an example
see here for more info, or here
Can't you turn it off?
well probably, in fact i've never had it turned on. but it's part of the m3 design spec, so i'm going to use it as an example to criticise the m3 spec.
Fair enough. I have it on, not much of a problem for me to recognize the apps but it gives a much more consistent look to my home page. I agree that Material You has sacrificed productivity in favor of appearance, and a lot of people may not like it. Meanwhile, I personally don't have much of a problem with that.
i personally think it's sacrificed productivity in favour of pastel vomit, but i realise that's just my opinion.
It's a beta feature that's currently off by default, but it's pretty clear Google wants to force it eventually
