Need to change the Date picker color in dark theme in flutter.

Solution

  • It looks like it might be controlled by the onSurface property of the theme's color scheme. If you don't want to change the onSurface for the entire application you could give the showDatePicker this builder instead:

    builder: (context, child) {
  return Theme(
      data: Theme.of(context).copyWith(
          colorScheme: Theme.of(context)
              .colorScheme
              .copyWith(onSurface: Colors.red)), //change to your desired color
      child: child!);
},

    I'm not sure if this totally fixes it but you can try this.
