Change typeface on Sleep Summary Screen

[Brick66]

The new typeface (pale grey outline with white fill) on the sleep summary page where it is used to label the bar chart is incredibly difficult to read on my phone with my elderly eyes - it gives the effect of double vision.  Please can you revert to a solid typeface of one contrasting colour.

The new font showing your sleep breakdown is extremely difficult to read, especially when u just wake up. Please consider using a more solid font rather than outline.

I too hate the outline-only font.  This was a VERY POOR design choice and is difficult to read.   I am over 40, and do not have the eyes of an artsy-fartsy millennial designer who thought this was a good idea.

Outline font is the most horrible use of fontage I have ever seen in an app.  This was obviously the work of one of their summer interns or a practical joke by someone.  I really question the design review / decision process that green-lit this abomination...

I agree. The new font sucks. Please give us something we can read.

Recently the font on my sleep scores on the charge 2 have been changed from solid black numbers (good font) to transparent white numbers (bad font) !!! Whoever thought this was a good idea was very much mistaken !!!! Please  put it right so I can actually read the numbers.

I agree! I have not-so-elderly eyes, but like to use a blue light filter and keep my brightness low. This new typeface is very difficult to see under the best of circumstances, so I'm hoping it reverts back or we are provided an option to select a font from a few choices.

I agree! The font is transparent making it unusable! Please change back!

This is ridiculous fix your **ahem** font already. You guys really must suck as a company and now that Google bought you it will probably never get fixed. I wish I never bought this product. Because google usually messes things up.

Pebble was an awesome innovative company. Fitbit and Google are very weak in my experience.

I like how the sleep stages are categorized in the app, but can the text used to show "time spent in each stage of sleep" please go back to a solid font? The current way it's an outline of the text can be a bit difficult to read.
