Custom styling of com.google.android.material.tabs.TabLayout

I am using the new Google Material Components for Android

Currently, I am trying to give a custom look for Tablayout (com.google.android.material.tabs.TabLayout).

I have created a style as follows:

<style name="AppTheme.TabLayout" parent="Widget.MaterialComponents.TabLayout">

    <item name="android:background">@color/colorPrimary</item>

</style>

However, upon applying this theme, the tab indicator becomes invisible.

Without theme:

With theme:

enter image description here

Also, I tried other things like changing tabIndicatorColor and still not working!

How do I fix this? Which is the correct way to change the colors/theme of Material Components?

     app:tabTextAppearance="@style/customFontStyle">



     //Tab items maybe



</com.google.android.material.tabs.TabLayout>

Styles.xml:

    <item name="android:background">@color/colorPrimary</item>

    <item name="tabIndicatorColor">@color/yourcolor</item>

</style>

I was using android:theme instead of style and that's what caused the issue!
