Is your feature request related to a problem? If so, please describe the problem.
I'd love to use the "Automatic contact colors" option, however I find it difficult to read the text when it selects the lighter orange color as the text background.

Or use a very dark color for the text.

qksms has some open tickets that may be relevant, I've been running into contrast issues too.

Agreed. The contact colors look great against a darker bg, but text color needs to be checked against bubble color readability scores for sure.

why not put a toggle on the color selection page to switch between white or black text so that the user can decide how SMS text is displayed if the default contrast is not suitable for them.

Pulse SMS seems to be fairly decent at selecting white or black text depending on overall brightness of the 3 RGB values (i think).

EDIT: I didn't even know QUIK also changed the text to dark... probably because it's so bad at deciding that I didn't even realize it until I started using the color map instead of the Material choices that seem to be tuned poorly for contrast...

A way to color the header of each conversation the same color or an accent color would be nice too. (Pulse does this nicely, and makes differentiating convos easier).
