VLC for Android should have different theme color available...
This suggestion is all about improving the **VLC for Android** application to make it more user friendly app.

**VLC for Android** is the leading open-source application media player available on the Android Play Store today. The application is very good in playing media files like videos and music. And also, the mentioned open-source can play almost media files available today. That's why, my very used application in playing my media files, especially watching movies and anime series is no other than, the VLC for Android itself.

The latest version of the app comes with a lot of additional features. More importantly, the latest update is more about fixing bugs. But, there something that was left behind from the recent update and that is the **app theme.**

The issue rises because the app has only two theme. Basically, it is white or black theme only. Based on the user preference, they can only select between the two theme available. Please see the photo below.

As you can see in the photo above, there is only two theme available. Enable the highlighted portion of the photo will simply turn the app into black color.

### Well, this is the problem all about.
The white is not advisable on those people who has sensitive eyes. The black theme also is not very good in area where there is so much light. Under the sun, the black theme for the app makes it very hard to see the application user interface.

Then, I make this suggestion as a form of request. The VLC for Android application should have different theme color available. It is very useful to the user if there is additional theme like following the basic color, like blue, pink, green, especially gray which I prefer to use in light or dark.

I hope this suggestion will help to improve the VLC for Android application if the next update will come soon.
