CometChat SDK & UI Kit both need to be configured before starting the customization in UI Kit. ## ::: To Modify and customize UI Kit, you need to refer to the `UIKitSettings` class present in the UI Kit Library. You will be easily able to modify the color, enable/disable some of the features which you won't require in your app. important * UI Kit Settings must be called before launching any UI Screen or UI Unified. By default, all settings will be enabled. * For advanced level customization, you can modify the source code of the library as per your requirement. **1.
