It's good that you are concerned with accessibility. In this regard, I recommend optimizing the colors of the illustrations. A light yellow and white do not work together. You could also check the contrast ratio of white lettering to light blue.

I added the high contrast version specifically because the contrast of white on blue is not good, but both it and the images are aesthetic choices. How do you personally decide how to balance aesthetics and accessibility? How can you make room for both?
Aesthetics and accessibility are not contradictory. It takes a good understanding of colors and contrasts to create accessibility on the one hand and to develop appealing designs on the other.
What do you do when it's an existing design? I made this app before I knew about UX, and premised the colors on a cute aesthetic, which is part of why users like the app. Adding high contrast was a way to add accessibility but keep the familiar look too, as I fear users will dislike a design change.
My opinion: the necessary adjustments are not as radical as you fear. Check the contrast ratios and adjust colors. I would start with everything that has to do with readability. I would point out these optimizations in the update information. Users are more likely to appreciate this than reject it.
