Every one of my contacts have a purple background. You can’t even read notes. Invert colors in accessibility is off. This happened with IOS 26. I don’t have wallpapers on any of the affected contacts.

The notes in done are very readable but not in the light. Why di they think we like looking at a color of their choice. Contacts look normal until you open them and I really dislike the change. Leave well enough alone. Apple always does this. We used to have wallpapers and the background of the contact card with white backgrounds no matter what. Now I have red, greens and purples. It’s unnecessary
When you are in an inside environment, it may be easier but look at this one. When I am outside I can not see it. This should be an option, not mandatory in settings. I should have a choice of background color. My contacts look like a children’s book Purple, green, blue etc Poster settings, never looked like this before, so why did they have to chamge it? Because it’s Apple and they always mess a good thing up.
Yes that is new. Some like it.
I can’t stand it. And the notes are in white font ..you can’t even read barely read them

I can. In fact on your screen shot the white text is very clear.

Here’s another. I use notes on almost every contact. It looks even better here but believe me, you can barely see it
