How do you get the effect of light text on a dark background as seen in the IOS 7 dialer or the password on the lock screen?

There is no way to access the background colour in iOS 7 for third party apps. Maybe one day Apple will open the API to access that, but for now we can't do it.

Here's a discussion about it.

    the background in this case doesn't hast to be the wallpaper. it can be some custom picture or anything else. so the question would be how to implement a similar effect in a easier way. – S. Liu Jun 10 '14 at 12:59
