How to make iPhone calendar dots brighter after iOS 18 update?

I don’t mind the color coded dots on my iPhone calendar but they are so pale since the 18 update. Can they be brightened?

What’s the point of having them pale when you’re already looking at a small calendar on a phone.

And no I don’t want to change the whole calendar.

I updated my iPhone last night to ios 18.11 and all of my appointments in the calendar used to show black dots (easy to see) and now the black dots were replaced with small color dots or dashes (Very difficult to see). Is there a way to switch back to black dots? [Re-Titled by Moderator]

How do I change the color dots on my Calendar? IS there anyway to color code the dots on your calendar so that they are not all showing grey, I know you can color code your appointments however the dots that appear when you look at the calendar in monthly view it is full of grey dots, I was hoping for a way to not only color code the appointment(s) but also the "notification dots" when you are looking at the entire month I.E. blue for medical, purple for financial, green for meeting(s), teal for holidays, and/or be able to make a custom color for multiple appointments without having to download/pay for a third party calendar app? TIA [Re-Titled by Moderator]

Past iPhone Calendar events are no longer faded out Past events on the daily calendar screen are still bold instead of faded as in the recent past (and forever before). This makes it difficult to differentiate active/future events from those whose time has come and gone. How do I return to the prior format?
