Android, setting background color of button loses ripple effect

Question

After adding color to an android button, it loses its ripple effect that makes the user feel like there is a responsive click. How do I fix this? I\'ve searched through many

Answer 1

There was no answer for MaterialButton, so i will put it here.

For MaterialButton (com.google.android.material.button.MaterialButton), use 'backgroundTint' and 'rippleColor'.

<com.google.android.material.button.MaterialButton
    android:id="@+id/button_sign_in"
    android:layout_width="0dp"
    android:layout_height="55dp"
    app:backgroundTint="@android:color/white"
    app:rippleColor="?attr/colorControlHighlight"

?attr/colorControlHighlight is the default ripple color, you can change this value.
