I hope you are right. Although it wouldn’t surprise me at all if Apple’s design team just made some really bad choices. I don’t care for the paler almost pinkish badge notification colors now either. They used to be red. It seems iOS 12 is a lot more washed out looking in general.
Ahhh, sorry! I’m totally not backing up Apple at all, I actually think it’s disgraceful that the update could even be released like this. It upsets me that it’s hard to see the coloured text on a dark background, because it’s an inconsiderate thing from Apple and shows their lack of polish lately. I think they’ve messed around with the colours in iOS too much this time and things like the blurs are too bright. I really hope this is all fixed for iOS 12.1…
It is not a bug. We have 3 iPhones in the house. They all do it. Change your wallpaper to jet black, swipe over to the widgets screen and look at the Screen Time widget. The light blue and orange/red text do not work against that dark gray background that bleeds through from the black wallpaper. It is a design flaw, not a bug that only happens on certain iPhones...
Whatever they did was a mistake and is causing a major eyesore. What’s most troubling is that they either didn’t catch this in testing or didn’t care enough to address it properly. Total GUI slop.
I see what you are talking about. Some extremely bad design choices being made. Major oversights in my opinion. When you can't read certain text you have a problem that needs to be addressed immediately.
That’s exactly what I was thinking. Is Apple assuming everyone looking at these phones is a 14 year old kid with better than perfect vision? There’s some really bad color combination/transparency design choices going on. You can’t overlay certain colored text on certain shades of gray. It just doesn’t work. It’s illegible. Orange on gray for one doesn’t work. Throw transparency on top of that and you have a mess!
