Are you referring to the contact list, or individual contact cards? The background when I open the Contacts app and look at the list, it is black text on white background. I do not see any place to adjust that. My contact cards are kind of a light blue background with white text. Other contact cards are ones the contact sent and/or shares with others. I'm still not finding a way on the contact card edit to change text color. Even the card I created for myself has that light blue background and the text is white, but the places where there are entries, i.e. phone, email, etc. have a darker background to make they stand out more. You would need to explain a little more where you are experiencing a problem.

That's who I'm addressing.

And I'll let you know they will not see the message here. If you want them to see something, you either contact Support. Official Apple Support or you use the feedback link. Feedback - iPhone - Apple This is where you report problems or let them know you would like to see a change.
