I detest the new white on black interface on the iPhone app. It makes it so difficult to read for those of us with less than perfect eyesight. I use Spotify a lot in the car, and therefore the iPhone is always a distance away from me in its' holder. The proper style black lettering on white background was much easier to read and to see at a distance.

PLEASE Spotify, just simply ask your developers to think of us with less than perfect eyesight, and provide a setting for either light or dark theme. Thank you.

I am a Premium member by the way, and this may well mean I cancel my subscription as I truly do find it difficult to read. For now, I will reinstall the old app from my iTunes backup and just hope that Spotify provide a Light Theme option soon. Light themes are much more iOS7 like too.

Hi @chartz I've just moved your post from Offtopic to the more relevant iOS board.

Please keep the feedback coming. We always want to hear what our users have to say.

Thank you Meredith - much appreciated! I realise I'm probably in the minority with the white lettering on black background problem, but it truly does cause eyesight problems. It would be so good to have a light theme option.

Hi @chartz I think this idea may be one you should add your support to.
