Does anybody know how to undo a recent change to the UI Color Scheme for the tempestwx web UI . Mine changed last night from a nice blue schema to a horrible purplish-pink or pinkish purple. TIA for any advice [Screen Shot 2022-07-12 at 7.34.30 AM]

Points for @storm_tracker for noticing this! The new purple theme for Tempest is here to stay. You can switch to dark mode as some might prefer that theme instead as the purple color is much more muted. We know some won’t like the change but this new color theme is important for Tempest branding. …

The purple color does not sit well with me either Please put it back and leave well enough alone or give owners the ability to set it back The devil always finds work for idle hands

Hi @storm_tracker , I totes agree with this sentiment. I work with and lead teams that build platforms, in another industry, that include APIs and mobile apps. We even have dipped into the HW world once in a while but left it because it’s extremely challenging compared to SW. Branding decisions …

Don’t get me wrong (I’m the OP). I LOVE the features/functionality of my Tempest WX. I’m just saying that I have color sensitivity to purple that makes that new choice horrible to try to read.

It would immediately go to a body shop to remove any vestige of :eggplant: or Barney. Seriously, I thought Dodge learned their lesson in early 70s!

Not for long. I first thought the phone could be a refuge from BarneyTech, but no. It autoupgraded.

One of the things I learned over time is that no matter how brilliant/good the program is one writes, if it doesn’t allow for changing the gui colors people will complain. I don’t like the new light scheme but the dark one is better that the old blue one. With respect to new branding… I always ass…

Color is so terrible, I’m looking at alternatives. With all the work in the dev queue, a color change makes it to the number 1 item to spend time on. Wow, next level stupid.

I can change to the dark mode in my phone (which I prefer), but what about on my PC? There doesn’t seem to be an option to use the dark mode on a PC.

On the web page, so to Settings, and scroll clear to the bottom. The Dark purple is more visible to me than the light GUI, but I dislike purple intently. I think I have a color blindness in my eyes to “shades of purple”. Steve

I setup a basic feature request to get the color scheme fixed - perhaps comment and vote on it if you agree? Light color scheme - even with plum
