How to change the font size on your Android device\, or zoom in the display to make everything larger

  • You can change the font size on your Android phone or tablet by heading to your device's Accessibility menu.
  • You can also change the screen's zoom settings to make images and other non-text content easier to view.

Your Android device allows you an impressive amount of customization, and I'm not just talking about ringtones and background images.

You can change the size of the font used in menus, web searches, and as you compose an email or a text. This is great if you regularly find your device's text too small to read.

Changing the font size on your Android device should only take you a moment. Here's how to do it.

2. Tap "Font Size." Depending on your device, this option may be hidden in a "Vision" menu.

3. You'll be presented with a slider that lets you control the font size. Drag the slider as far to the right as you want — the farther right it goes, the larger your text will grow.

4. Tap "Done" to save your changes.
