Research direction
The issue requests that the ShowHidePasswordEditText view automatically read the theme's colorAccent and set the icon tint accordingly. To implement, locate the ShowHidePasswordEditText.java file and modify the constructor or initialization to retrieve the primary color attribute from the current theme (e.g., using TypedArray and android.R.attr.colorAccent). Then apply the color to the drawable via setColorFilter. Test on different theme variations.
