Dark mode: your own chat bubbles are a gray (#343a44, light text) instead of the white accent, which glared among the dark bubbles. Android 1.12 (code 13): the TWA no longer names a navigation-bar colour — the helper library always passed one (white when the manifest named none), and Chrome 154's Custom Tab window paints that bar white anyway while the buttons follow the colour asked for, so the colour extras are stripped from the launch intent (both schemes) and the bar is left to the browser and the system. Untested on a device yet; not published.
