Gallery App Dark Theme
- /e/ version: 0.18
- Device model(s): SM-G960F
- Device rooted: no
Summary
Since /e/ version 0.17, the gallery displays a white-on-white color scheme when using a dark system theme.
The problem
Steps to reproduce
- Set system theme to dark
- Open gallery app
What is the current behavior?
The color scheme for the gallery app is difficult to read.
What is the expected correct behavior?
A dark theme with appropriate contrast should be used.
Relevant screenshots
- A screenshot of the album view in the gallery app. All labels are very hard to read due to the white-on-white color scheme.
Solutions
Workaround
Switch to a light system theme.
Possible fixes
The color scheme used with a system light theme is actually darker and more readable. Perhaps keep that color scheme persistent? This appeared to be the case in /e/ version 0.16.
