Allow different template / colorscheme on ODK collect #788

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
I am using ODK collect on different devices, and in my search for battery 
savings I was wondering if having a reverse colorscheme could help me get just 
a little more time. Ofcourse this would need to be a choice for the admin 
settings to select a colorscheme.

Reverse color schemes make it hard to see UI elements in places with little 
light (i.e., under heavy canopy or in a mud house). These are the places where 
ODK was designed to work.

Also, reverse color schemes will not help battery life. Try 
http://www.juicedefender.com instead.

For amoled screens it does help. Also when used in a dark place, the white 
screen can be just too bright and a reverse scheme can help readability. Not 
sure about the design of collect, but android does offer a light and dark theme 
by default.
