Question: We have a design for an app developed by an external agency and our business people seem to be happy with it. But it’s really terrible - the colours are too bright, the text is difficult to read and so on.

How can we persuade our business that it needs to be changed? We can’t just say “We don’t like it, it sucks.” We need to have valid points against this colour scheme.

I understand that colours are subjective. But are there any objective metrics that can show the difference between bad and good app colour scheme?

Answer: 
I would suggest to simply expand the full text at tap (or click). Moreover i would simplify the labeling if possible.

hope this helps!

Add an expand / read more button or link at the end of the line. This way the user knows he can interact with it and view the longer text.

Can also add truncation. (Thats the three dots you're talking about)
