Info on the app colored title bars
Hi there everyone, After the version 80.0.351.0 update, I noticed that the title bars of the Apps installed through Edge show a colored title bar, which looks super cool... For example: YouTube has...
Yes, this is a new feature we're working on! Now, when you install a site as an app, we'll automatically theme the title bar based on the site's colors. This happens automatically, but as always web developers can specify their own color and override this automatic theming.
I'm glad you all like it. 🙂

I wish there was an option to override it ourselves and have it follow the theme we installed on the Edge Browser to begin with lol Is that possible?
- William, this looks good in installed web apps. So good, that I think Edge should bring this to the browser itself, not just installed apps. For example, add a toggle in Settings under Appearance to "Use adaptive colors in title bar". This wouldn't suit everyone, but some people would love it, and you'd have another thing setting you apart from Chrome.
William Devereux Will there be anyway for the end user to change the color of the title bar? We use MS Dynamics 365 and for some reason when we install this site as an app it uses red which doesn't really mesh with the Dynamics 365 theme.
Thanks
- Thanks!!! Spotify and Twitter look great
That's awesome! Is there information posted somewhere about how the title bar color is determined from the site colors?
William Devereux indeed a great feature...
like HotCakeX said, I want to make all of the sites into apps to see this theming...😂
Thanks for the feature!
