Inverted colours

iPad has inverted colours on email eg black background white text. I’ve gone to settings, general, accessibility and then I get a bit lost and end up making it worse by inverting the colours everywhere. What am I missing? Thanks it’s iPad 8.

If the screen colours appear to be distorted or unnatural, you need to check some key Accessibility settings that are intended to compensate for specific colour-vision issues:


Settings > Accessibility > Display & Text Size




Ensure that all settings enclosed within the red box above are switched OFF/Disabled.


Otherwise, depending upon your installed version of iOS/iPadOS, you’ll need to look at your Dark Mode settings:

Settings > Display & Brightness > [Appearance]
