Thanks, but already tried, the font color is not changing – Daniel Döbereiner Jun 27 '22 at 20:08
I've updated the answer @DanielDöbereiner, u just need to change the bar style from "dark-content" to "light-content" to change the font color. – Tahany DM Jun 28 '22 at 08:06
the problem is either with dark-content and light-content the font color is white, I need it in black – Daniel Döbereiner Jun 28 '22 at 13:22
