Is it possible to change the textcolor on an Android SearchView?

by

Add

<item name="android:editTextColor">@android:color/white</item>

to the parent theme and that should change the entered text. You can also use

<item name="android:textColorHint">@android:color/white</item>

to change the hint text color for the SearchView. (Note that you can replace the @android:color/white with whatever appropriate value you’re hoping to use)
