Visual condition: Retinitis pigmentosa (diagnosed)
I would like to raise (continue) the concern regarding Dark Mode usability in Logos, particularly from an accessibility standpoint.
Despite previous discussions on this topic, the current implementation still presents significant readability challenges:
- Low contrast hyperlinksThe blue color used for links is extremely difficult to read against the dark background. In my case, it becomes almost indistinguishable, especially during extended study sessions. This directly affects usability.
- Lack of visual boundaries in UI elementsPop-up menus and contextual panels are not clearly delineated. The absence of sufficient contrast or borders makes it difficult to distinguish where one element ends and another begins. This creates unnecessary cognitive strain when navigating the interface.
- Inconsistent readability across toolsSome tools (e.g., Text Comparison vs. Bible panels) appear to use different shades or contrast levels, leading to an inconsistent experience. This suggests that the issue is not inherent to Dark Mode itself, but to specific design choices.
From an accessibility and design perspective, this seems to fall short of widely accepted standards such as WCAG contrast guidelines.
Suggestions:
- Provide an option to customize link colors in Dark Mode
- Increase contrast for interactive elements
- Add clearer borders or separation for pop-ups and panels
- Consider an “accessibility-focused” Dark Mode variant
I would appreciate clarification on whether this is being actively addressed, or if there are existing settings I may have overlooked.
Thank you.
