Has anyone else noticed on their pixel or pixel xl that at night, their ui is in dark theme and then during the day is in light theme? I've noticed this on 2 pixel xl devices that at night, my folder, notifications and settings ui is all dark.
I can't find anything on this online though i know dark theme was possible with some tweaks before but this would have come directly with a pixel launcher update.
I'm running stock Android 8.1.0 with the latest security updates.
pixel launcher 8.1.0 4429924
It's dependant on the wallpaper

I finally got the same answer from someone at the Google helpdesk and realized what it was. I wish they would enable a toggle for the dark theme that followed the sunrise sunset adaptive brightness.

Still all stock here, got my Oreo OTA.
I already hate the persistent notifications.
Why do I need two icons in the status bar and three items in the pulldown to tell me Twilight is running?
Pixel users got a native nightlight screen color filter with O, but we didn't?

We're just the poor relations on the Pixel C tablet I'm afraid... Pretty rubbish really...

Pixel 2 live wallpapers are now available and works well on Pixel 2016 on Android 8.0! All of them are amazing, the file is around 160mb though. Hit the source link to download and previews!
I love the "live earth" wallpaper for my dark theme. Goes from being a shot of earth in the daylight to the version seen below. These new wallpapers are amazing.
Setup
Nova Launcher (With Google Now Companion APK)
Stealth Icon Pack
Google Live Wallpaper
Swift Black Substratum Theme
I disabled Wallpapers to revert it back to stock, then enabled it. Then I tried to install the Pixel Wallpapers 2017 app, but it says app not installed.
Scratch that, I figured it out.

Is the new live earth any different from the one we already have?

I honestly don't know. New to the Pixel and started on 8.0 and installed the live wallpapers as soon as I saw the beach scene available.

More than a month old for this reply but still you'll see the difference on the screenshots. I like the old one better, cause the newer one is way too zoomed out.
Hasn't there been an update for this on the pixel 2 after android 8.1 ?
Hi,
Anyone also having trouble installing the APK? I'm running a totally stock Pixel XL on 8.1.0 (april security patch).
The installation progress slows down halfway through, then seems to freeze, then I get a 'App not installed' message.
After seeing that pixel 2 launcher changes color theme according to the wallpapers color i was wondering what if i install the pixel 2 launcher to my pixel XL, after all this future was implemented to android oreo and why not working for original pixels too? but after i tried i realized it didnt work. is there any way to enable this future?
You can try the Android 8.1 Oreo Developer Preview.
Added WallpaperColors API
Android 8.1 Developer Preview (API level 27) adds support for managing wallpaper colors. This feature lets you create a WallpaperColors object from a bitmap, a drawable, or by using the first three most visually representative colors. You can also retrieve details of the first three noticeable colors of a wallpaper.
Edit: I can confirm that it works with the preview.

You could give Pixel 2 ROM a try. I don't have any experience with it, but it looks up to date now.

Hi there,
how about Andromeda and Substratum? (If you dont want custom roms)
[PC/MAC/LINUX] The official, full Andromeda thread for Substratum [Android 8.0.0+]
You can then install Pixel Theme from Playstore -
[Substratum] Pixel Theme
then just activate these settings Android System - Accent color - Blue
and
System UI for Pixel navbar (if you want).
I don't know about Night mode tho. You can either download some dark theme for Substratum. I can reccomend Swift Dark Substratum Theme +Oreo & Samsung theme (i'm not affiliated or something, I just tried many free dark themess and this one is excellent, even if you have to pay).
