    I have been looking at the information in the Status Bar (charge and signal in particular) when my Pixel 6 Pro is mounted on my bike in landscape orientation. The black text on grey background is not good in bright conditions. I have changed the app theme to dark and this gives white text on dark blue (better) but reverts to black text and grey when in navigation mode. If I then turn on dark map, the Status Bar gives white on black (I think) which is again good. This video shows the different colours but it would be a preference for me to have the light text on dark background as the default as this is so much easier to read. TomTom Go Nav uses white text on black all the time which is excellent whilst OsmAnd uses white text on Orange (not so good).

    Just a thought

    Kind Regards. Help where I can.
