WP Color Browser

Description

WP Color Browser uses the theme-color meta tag which is used in browsers such as Google Chrome to customize the mobile browser. Currently WP Color Browser is only working on the mobile version of Google Chrome because that is the only browser to implement the theme-color meta tag. More settings will be added to the plugin as more browers adopt use of theme-color and other meta tags.

It works fine with 4.9.8, but watch out because it adds lines to your .htaccess file that can cause WSOD if it conflicts with what you already have in there. Easy enough to delete the added lines.
