hello,
in my opinion, the splash screen should follow the app's current theme. i am using the latest beta from google play & the splash screen is always light themed no matter what theme i use.

As far as I know, it is not possible to set a theme at runtime for the splash screen.

If I may resurrect an old issue, I believe there is at least a way to have it follow the system theme.
Since most people will probably want to set their app to match their system theme (so Light->Light and Dark->Dark/Black/Nord), would you consider doing that instead?

There's supposedly an option to target different versions of assets based on the system theme (according to a friend - I have zero Xamarin experience) and looking around the web, I stumbled onto this article that does exactly that.
