Fortunately the iOS accessibility color filter works wonders. After enabling that (in deutan mode) I now see green and gray/purple dots.
- macintux 6y agoI knew iOS had a strong accessibility story, but I had no idea it could compensate for color blindness.
- floatingatoll 6y agoIt can’t restore color perception (you’ll still have reduced color bandwidth versus someone who isn’t), but it can rewrite the visual spectrum being fed to the display onto narrower bands that sidestep the colorblindness gaps. Especially valuable when paired with the Magnifier mode that lets you look through the rear camera on the screen.
- ryankrage77 6y agoAndroid can do it to, under the accessibility settings you can have greyscale and various other colour modes
- Thorrez 6y agoWindows 10 can do it too. It's called "Color filters". Both "Red-green (green weak, deuteranopia)" and "Red-green (red weak, protanopia)" work to allow me to use the site. The second one is more visible, but also much more distorting. Also I've now enabled the hotkey (win+ctrl+c).
- bytematic 6y agoRed/green are pretty common status colors. What would you suggest, perhaps different shapes?

- varenc 6y agoShapes or patterns. Could keep the dots, but add stripes going one way for red and stripes going another way for green. The particular color also matters a lot. Like even though I’m red/green color blind, I can still easily distinguish red/green traffic lights.
