Why does WebView elements still have Holo UI and how to change them?

Question

I have a webView in one of my Android apps with setBuiltInZoomControls() set to true but I see that the zoom control has Holo UI instead of Material:

What is the best way to change or customize this?

Answer 1

By default Apps developer can't control these things, It is displayed according to certain features according to the Android version and the used theme in styles.xml

If you want to change Webview style only create programmatically and passed the appearance in the parameters

WebView WebView = new WebView(context, null, R.style.CustomStyle);
