New covers rounded corners look bad in some cases.

I like new rounded corners but it has some issues. When cover corner is white or bright and backgroud is dark it's possible to see gradient or pixels. It's easy to notice that with Gallery app cover. On Calendar app or Notes app covers it's not visible.

For sure it's visible on Jolla 1 and Jolla C.

So it looks like we are back to the 2014 https://together.jolla.com/question/34012/bug-rounded-cover-corners/

Yup, seems quite ugly. They aren't that visible at least on my XA2.

I can't detect this even with my glasses on, perhaps I need to go back to my optometrist !! ;)

@Edz I can detect it without glasses but it's not visible always, only in some cases. Download my screenshot and open it, then compare bottom right corner of Gallery app with corners from other apps.

@Edz It's easier to detect it on this screenshot. Look at the bottom corners of Browser cover.

agreed, but we don't view our devices by screenshots, nonetheless, I can now see it with stronger glasses 8-)

yeah but I can see this with naked eyes on my Jolla 1 :) Maybe my eyes are too good ;)

sure, I'm fast approaching 50 yrs old, was born boss eyed and had several ops to correct various problems, but only in recent years has my eyesight become noticeably worse. I need to go back to my optometrist for sure, sooner or later I will look like Mr Magoo if I don't.

But the weirdest thing for me is that they have experience with rounded corners from 2014 and they did that again

Yes, I noticed the question had been posed before. perhaps a change of dev staff or a change of heart brought it back. Perhaps a change of the radius applied might make it less noticeable.
