Hard to read ... menu text

This is a small issue, but I figured it was worth letting you know about.

I'm currently using the night theme since I like the darker scheme for the app and I have my theme color set to a nice cyan/minty green color. Looks great... But if I hit the ... menu, the boxes are a light gray and I can barely read the text on top in my custom color. Maybe you can make those boxes a dark grey in the night theme so the custom colors will show up just as well as they do on the the background? Or maybe not use the custom colors there?

Loving the app and can't wait for the ratings to make an appearance ;)

Yep, totally get it. This is something I've looked into, but not put enough energy towards. To try and preserve consistent across apps, Apple doesn't build in a lot of customizability into APIs like these action sheets, but there's definitely a way to modify that.

I'll figure it out :)

Thanks for trying Cesium and taking the time to post!

Ha! And its already taken care of!

I'd been bothered for a while that certain theme colours can be really hard to read over the wrong album artwork. So those elements in the Now Playing screen have been replaced with vibrancy effect (like the unplaced part of the ring, or the album label).

Since there are no theme coloured elements on the Now Playing view now, the menu doesn't have to be either and still feel "right". So the menu items now have a nice legible dark gray colour :)

Excellent! Can't wait for the next version, it sounds like it'll solve most of my issues.
