Mint is a field with a pulse
Mint green here is pastel and airy, not forest. The kawaii mint face and the handwritten happy field are almost solids. The teal-to-mint paint slab is the one file that already leans toward the teal page. We still list it because the top of that slab is mint enough to use as a clock wash.
Mint hides a lot of icon styles. Dark glyphs on mint are easy. White glyphs on mint need a slight shadow or a folder background; that is your launcher, not our file.
Mint versus the green page
Green holds the meadow and deeper leaf. Mint holds the bathroom-tile calm. If you wanted “nature,” go to green. If you wanted a clean phone that does not look like a camping app, stay here.
A mint lock screen is quiet to the point of boredom for some people. That is a valid review. Pair it with a lake or a meadow if you need a place to look when the phone is idle.
Daily use
Mint is one of the gentler OLED daily drivers in the library: mid value, low contrast, no hard white bar.[3] Pale type on pale mint can still miss a 4.5:1 contrast floor — keep the happy letterforms off the clock band.[1][2] The face files keep the face small so a dock can sit below.
If mint photographs too grey on your panel, your screen is calibrated cool or the brightness is low. Bump brightness before you decide the file is dirty.
Mint as furniture
Mint is furniture. You stop seeing it, which is the compliment. The week I used the mint face under a full icon grid I never once noticed the face until I turned the phone sideways. That is success for a home screen and failure for a lock screen you wanted to look at.
The happy-type file is the exception: you notice it. Do not cover the word. If you need a widget in the center, use the face file instead.
Mint photographs grey when the panel is dim and cool. Brightness first, then judgment. Recalibrating a phone to make mint look like a candy ad is how you get a file that looks wrong in every other app.
