Is there a way to change color to a text input box? (Not from design) Pity i cannot use it into an app with color themes option ☹

Unfortunately, the developers broke the crutch with which this could be done using blocks.

Use Framework7

i’ve found a workaround using special fixed advanced properties (background color and text color and alpha) to let the input box be visible in all the theme i developed. It takes an entire day but at least is done…  
tks anyway
