Why is everything so tiny and what do I need to do?

[kelly4c]

I haven't been here in a long time because something changed with the front resolution or whatever and now it's super tiny and even though I have my settings on maximum font and display there is no way to comfortably browse this site anymore but I miss it so I'm reaching out to find out if anything can be done.

I wish I knew how to paste a screenshot but yeah it's basically unreadable unless I do the reverse pinch on each little section that I'm reading which is not sustainable

Are you on a desktop/laptop computer or a mobile device? That info would be helpful.

You might get more focused advice if you described what hardware you are using (PC, phone), and which browser.

Change the size of text in Windows (if you have windows)

If I’m reading this correctly.....to increase size, all you have to do is
go into settings.....access “Zoom” and click on the size best for you.

After the last update on my phone the font got really tiny and I could not figure out how to get it back to where it was either. I still don’t know. I’m on an Android so I’m struggling with the same thing the poster is dealing with. I’ve tried everything and have no idea how to fix it

[spacejunkie2001]

Doesn’t work

Every time This Guy gets a new smart phone (at least once a year) that problem goes away.

FWIW, not spending more than $40-45 for said new phones.

worked for me!!!!! yeah

Glad to hear it.

Android phone
settings/ accessibility / vision enhancements

lots of settings there for font size and magnification etc

A tip in FR Mail:

“Press Ctrl +
should make the type as large as you want.”

Also if you want to make the type smaller Press Ctrl minus.

[Buttons12]

Settings, font size should do it.

I can’t read it on my phone at all unless I pinch it up. I use the little “reader” icon to read the posts. It’s more like reading paper with that.

Assuming your using Chrome as the web browser on the Android:
Open Chrome, touch the 3 dots on top right, scroll down to Settings, in there go to Accessibility, then drag the default zoom bar to the right until you can read the text. If you are using Brave or something else chromium based it is basically the same you just have to find the 3 dots, settings, and Accessibility to adjust

[CTRL] and [+] will solve your problem....

I am having the same problem. When I try to make the print larger the page does not fit well to read

On your Android phone, use a different browser.

Firefox gives me readable print that fits inside the phone window without messing with settings.
