Monochrome notification icons with new os update

I got an os update this morning. All the app icons when I pull down notifications are the same color. Who thinks that's a good idea?!

@usermhKx17WGJv ~~After the update have you tried restarting your phone?~~

As a best practice, I always wipe the device cache partition after a OS update. It gets rid of any possibly corrupted temporary values. This does not remove any app nor user settings. Have you wiped the device cache partition?

[update edit] I just updated my Fold 4 to UI 5.1. I can confirm that all the notification icons are one color. This seems to be a UI 5.1 feature/bug. You can avoid the feature/bug by:

Open the phone settings
Click on Wallpaper and style
Click on Color palette and turn it off.

Thank you! What a dumb use of color palettes
