Colors washed out in XD

What the hell is going on with XD? I take a color from PS, use it in XD and it's not the same!!! It's washed out as hell... I thought hey maybe it's just display profiles used, but you can't set it in XD (at lest on windows) but upon export we have two different colors in the exported designs both from PS and XD. How the hell am I supposed to get EXACT COLOR DEMANDED BY CLIENT (by HEX #) if I can't get it looks same as in PS?

Here... check this out. This is the same exported from Photoshop PNG file. On right opened in image view (looks exactly the same in PS) and on right that same image just dragged in into XD. And the best part is when you export it it will stay like that. -> IMAGE

    Wait... what? So you solution (from that thread you linked) is I quote: "f you're looking for color space management, you should upvote this story in UserVoice: Color Managed Application – Adobe XD Feedback : Feature Requests & Bugs"

    So the solution is to upvote a request for a feature so the colors in YOUR OWN SOFTWARE display same across your own applications? I swear to god no one except Adobe could make this one up... And you send me there and makr this as solved... yeah... great job! Give yourself a pat in the back. Well done. As a paying member I am disgusted with such client support.

    PS. I'll tell go the client to go and upvote so in a few months you implement this se we could finish his app with the colors he wants. And you call yourself a company with software for professionals? For software for work? What a joke...
