Bug Description

It is hard graft reading the standard grey system font on the light grey bakground.
The colour of the grey font like in e.g.

-scopes,
-system settings,
-Also all ubuntu standard apps like dialer and so on,

should all be generally much more darker in standard setting to get more contrast for comfortably readability.

Would be great if you decide to change it.
Thanks

We're fixing this issue as part of the next SDK update. We're darkening the text grey and lightening the background so the contrast will be much greater and the text easier to read. Please keep an eye out, this will land in the next few months. Thanks!
