Color blind friendly mode is no longer working. I know there’s an ongoing topic here regarding it not working for the project icons on the sidebar, but until today, the task field color chips when viewing a project were still color blind friendly.

Now, it’s the exact same palette whether color blind mode is on or off, across all of Asana. A couple of my teammates tested also and they get the same behavior. It’s very hard to tell the difference between these pastel colors - please bring back color blind friendly mode!

Color blind mode on:

Color blind mode off:

Example of difficult-to-see contrast:

Any update on this? Colour blind mode is still not working for me and as some who is colour blind, I’m pretty disappointed it’s gone. It improved my experience a lot!

Hi everyone,

I’m following up regarding the **Color Blind Friendly Mode** concern. The issue has now been fixed, and the mode is working properly.

If you had trouble enabling it before, please try again in your settings. Everything should function as expected now.

Thanks again for your patience and for helping us improve accessibility features. 🙌

Best,  
Iren
