<color name="white">#FFFFFFFF</color>
<color name="share_button_color">#271B1B</color>
<color name="next_button_color">#21EA13</color>

<Button
    android:id="@+id/sharememe"
    android:layout_width="0dp"

Material buttons use backgrountTint attribute to colorize their background not background attribute, So replace background attribute with:

<Button
    ...
    app:backgroundTint="@color/next_button_color"/>

  • okay thankyou soo much dear. May GOD bless you. Can you please tell me difference b/w material button and simple button? – MUHAMMAD HASEEB Jul 20 '21 at 06:51
  • You're welcome, If the answer helped mark it as the accepted answer to help others as well. Material button are normal buttons styled per [Google Material design guidelines](https://material.io/design/guidelines-overview), including shadow, inset, corner radius, touch gestures, etc. which is drawn on all API versions the same by the help of [Android support library](https://material.io/develop/android/docs/getting-started). – Sdghasemi Jul 20 '21 at 07:12
