Today we are going to see how to change the size of the fonts or letters of our Android device. If you have vision problems or you like the lettering of the menus to be larger due to the reduced size of the screen, today you will know how to do it.
Change the contrast of the text
If even increasing the font size of your phone you find it difficult to read, you can try another trick. Also in the settings of your phone there is an option to increase the contrast of the text. This will give more definition to the outlines of the letters, standing out more against the background color and improving visibility. To activate it you only have to go to Settings – Accessibility – High contrast text. You will automatically notice the change on your screen.
It can be annoying if all the text on the phone is the same size. However, some apps like Twitter, which previously allowed you to change the text size only in your app, have now stopped doing so. If after these tricks, you still have problems seeing on your phone, you can resort to one last option.
