Colors of map useless?

[KeepYourShirtOn]

So I have the dark theme set, which gives me a map that looks like this:

pretty useless to me. And the ‘normal’ colors are also extremely washed out:

is there a way to have the / a map use normal colors?? like so:

I have the same problem and I would also like to know if it can be changed.

Me too, the dark mode map is pretty hard to read. It would be helpful to have more options on the map colors.

best regards

Light mode is too washed out, dark mode appears as a pure black rectangle on OLED screens.

Same problem for me. Need something more than the two current options; light - like a copier running out of toner or dark - like turning off the lights in room with no windows, at night.

Hi all, anyone have raised this as issue? Or is it solved somewhere? This topic seems to be more than a year old.

you might be able to make the dark mode more usable by modifying the brightness and/or contrast by using card_mod filters on the card’s code directly

as an example

you can modify the brightness if it’s just too dark. You need card_mod installed

card_mod:
  style: |
    ha-card {
      filter: brightness(1.5); /* Increase overall brightness */
    }

you can also use a contrast filter

      filter: contrast(0.8);

or both

      filter: brightness(1.5) contrast(0.8);
