Spell correction colors

How do I change the colors on the spelling correction dropdown?

If I type something wrong (or voice to text messes up) and I touch the underlined word, the contrast between the suggested text and the background is so low that I can't read it. Especially if it is bright out.

Hi sethrandall,

Although you can change background colors and other aspects of the Message + app, there does not exist a way to specifically change the colors of the spellcheck words. Changing some background colors may serve to make it easier to read though. Check out this comprehensive guide-->http://vz.to/2tWmEOo.

Unfortunately that makes no difference. There is no color or contrast change for any of the customization I tried. Could you file a case/feature request to change it?

We want to make sure that this is resolved, Sethrandall. Just to verify, what is the make and model of your device? Do you notice this issues on other applications or only the Message+ app?

This may be an issue with one of the new Samsung updates if so, the recommended workaround is to use an alternate keyboard. To make this change, here are the steps: Apps > Settings > Language and Input > Virtual Keyboard > Manage Keyboards.

I am using a Samsung S7. It is only in the Message+ app. Some apps don't offer the correction at all. The Samsung Memo app does and uses black and orange text on a white background which is much more readable.
