Poor readability in main weather screen due to low contrast #40

Closed Percy90478 closed 1 year ago

Percy90478 commented 1 year ago

In both light and dark mode, readability of the main screen is poor due to low contrast of text and background.

In light mode, its dark blue text on light blue background. In dark mode, its grey text on black background.

This is not ideal. Please use colors that provide more contrast. And/or use a heavier or bold font.

if you have problems you can use Android accessibility settings and e.g. switch to high contrast there

I don't have this problem with other apps, because they use colors that provide higher contrast.

Percy90478 commented 1 year ago

Contrast ratio in Dark mode is only 3.09 whereas Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.0 recommend ratio of >4.5

I'm refering to text and background colors of this view:

I made a few small changes in dark mode. You can try it.

Uninstall Remove.zip and install

The color scheme is quite difficult. A small change in one place causes a problem in another place... app-release.apk.zip

Thank you! It's just a slight difference, but I'll try to go with it.
