Hello,

I am developing app on ionic and I am very happy with ionic,  
one major issue I felt on ionic by developing an app for android,  
ionic gives styles for dropdown here [http://ionicframework.com/docs/v1/components/#select](http://ionicframework.com/docs/v1/components/#select)

After applying this code, dropdown looks beautiful in the browser, but when I run the app on android, android overrides its own style and it looks dirty 😡.

Looks like this in android:

So, here i want to display actual styles provided by ionic in given link.

Thank You.

I encourage you to use Ionic 2/3 which is very beautiful when it comes with UI. Take a look at their docs [https://ionicframework.com/docs/components/#select](https://ionicframework.com/docs/components/#select)

Thanks, @anicacute09,  
for that, I have to learn TypeScript, Angular 2 and then Ionic 2 🙂 and it is a long process.

Temporary I need a fix, surely I will learn ionic 2 in some time.

I think it was the default UI for dropdown on mobile devices (android, ios)…
