tintColor appearing darker on iPhone 6 plus

When I use the tintColor property of any UIKit object. the colour always appears darker on the iPhone 6 plus. Is there a reson for this? below is a screenshot of the same test on both iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 plus. The UIColor assigned to the blue square and the icon (UIButton tint colour) are exactly the same? I can't find anyone with a similar problem:

Solution

  • The iPhone 6+ in question had the 'darken colours' option in 'accessibility' -> 'Increase Contrast' selected.
