Text too small on forum

BUDFORCE · 8 Jan 2024 at 20:11

Hi guys, need some help as I'm a bit of a phone noob.

I got a Google Pixel 7a, not had it that long, everything was fine, then out of the blue the size of the font on this OCUK app went very small, I'm struggling to it, and my eyesight is ok.

I went into settings and font size but this only seems to affect certain things, outside of the app.

It's the same for chrome I'm guessing they are linked?

I looked in chrome settings as well but couldn't see anything obvious about changing the font size.

Edit, tried messing with the font scaling in chrome, which only makes the text bigger or smaller when typing.

But once posted it's tiny again.

Thanks for the replies.

I've put screenshots, you can see how small the text is on the forum Vs web.

When I go to phone settings increase font size, all it does is increase the size of the text (as noted font size in the screen) but the actual size of the text on the forum doesn't change.

It's not the phone settings you need to go into, it's the Chrome accessibility settings you need to check:

Yup tried that as well, again just changes the size of the font when I'm writing but forum remains the same.

The weird thing is it was fine, then just changed by itself, I didn't do anything :confused:

Fixed it!

How annoying, it wasn't the text scaling or size at all, but it was the display size option, which just makes everything bigger.

Thanks all, bloody phones.
