Steps to Reproduce

• Create a new Flutter project
• Run the app in an iPhone SE simulator
• Change the theme color of the app
• Hit the Hot Reload button in IntelliJ

The console said "Reloaded 1 of 439 libraries in 305ms." But the color wasn't updated in the Simulator.

This problem seems to only exist in IntelliJ. Hot Reload via command line worked.
