Colour clarity

Is it possible to have a bit more clarity to which colour you or your opponent is when issuing a challenge?
Our league uses Lichess for our online league and sometimes I have to cancel a challenge because the colour I’m supposed to be is wrong and reissue another.
How are you issuing the challenge?

The normal way, let's you pick between three kings. A white king, A half white- half black king, and a black king.
No. I use the app. I search for my opponent and then press challenge. It then comes up white, black or either. But it fails to tell you whether it’s you or your opponent who is white or black. If you get my drift?
If you are challenging it lets you pick your color.
I guess I should ask whether you are using the Android app or iOS app.
If you click white, are you claiming white for yourself, or offering it to the opponent?

That’s what I’m trying to ask. Thanks mcgoves

And I’m black. Thanks for that
