Hello,

You can do it by adding following code to change the icon color to light black(like grey) in OnCreate method, but you cannot change it to purity black.

WindowInsetsControllerCompat windowInsetController = WindowCompat.GetInsetsController(Window, Window.DecorView);

windowInsetController.AppearanceLightNavigationBars = true;

Best Regards,
