Add monochrome icons for Android
Besides any and maskable there is another manifest icon purpose called monochrome.
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Manifest/icons#values
On Android, monochrome icons from native apps are used by Material You with OS level theming. It seems that integration with PWAs isn't quite there: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/74620798/material-you-icon-on-pwa But there's an open issue in Chromium: https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=1468845
I'd like to provide a monochrome icon in my manifest to:
- make it easy to test their adoption on different platforms
- be ready when support lands on different platforms
I'd be interested in support, similar to what was introduced in #38 for maskable icons. Or perhaps a more generic solution that allows the user to provide icons for any purpose (e.g. any, maskable, monochrome, some-new-spec-in-the-future, etc).
Thanks for raising this, I support this feature request. Today the monochrome icon is not working for PWA on Android
