Funny enough, my phone upgraded to iOS 26 tonight, and I am like - what is this garbage, who though this is a good idea? And lo and behold, now I know...

Immediately went Tinted mode, yet there is transparency where it shouldn't be, text overlays other text, etc...

I also went tinted as soon as 26.1 came out. There is a step further, under "accessibility" -> "Reduce Transparency".

For me Tinted is ok. Original was indeed very hard to read in places (ie, quick peeks at the notification tray).

Reduce transparency brings it back to acceptable levels, thanks!
