Android 14 could let you adjust the system theme’s contrast
The Android 14 “Upsidedown Cake” developer preview is out now, and people have been cracking into it to see what’s in store. Thanks to a new leak from 9To5Google, it seems that Android 14 will let you adjust the contrast on the theme you applied.
If you want to check out this developer preview, you can download the image file now. Just know that you will need some technical know-how if you want to try it out. You will need to manually flash the image file onto your system. If you don’t know what you’re doing, you run the risk of bricking your device.
If you aren’t all that tech-savvy, then you will want to just wait for the beta version to drop. It’s a lot safer, and it’s not that much longer of a wait.
Android 14 could let you adjust the contrast on your system theme
Since this was discovered in the developer preview, there’s a chance that it won’t make it to the final build of the software. So, you’ll want to take this with a grain of salt.
As you know, Android 12 brought the Dynamic Color feature. This feature takes the colors prominent in your wallpaper and crafts a custom theme based on them. Android 12 introduced this feature and Android 13 refined it. Now, it seems that Android 14 will take this even further.
The team at 9To5Google found a slider in the software that will adjust the contrast of the colors in the theme. It was found under the Color and Motion section in the settings. On the bottom of the screen, you’ll be able to change the overall contrast in the software.
There are only three different contrast settings that you can use. The lowest is called Standard, the highest is called High, and the middle setting is unnamed. While adding contrast to your theme will make for a different aesthetic, this seems to be an accessibility feature. Higher contrast in the software makes it easier to see if your eyesight isn’t the best.
This only makes us wonder what other customizations Google will give us for Material You. It’d be neat to have more options like a saturation slider or a brightness slider. Only time will tell what Google is planning.
