Customization is one of the things that makes Android so great, but it's for more than just aesthetics. If you have trouble seeing things, you can adjust the size of icons, text, and more. We'll show you how.
Depending on what version of Android you're using (and what type of phone), you may be able to change just the text size or even make everything on the screen larger. We're going to talk about all of those options here—as well as a few other things you can do to make your phone easier to see.

That's it. The text size for your entire phone will change with this setting.
Maybe you don't want to make everything on your phone giant permanently. Android's Magnification tool allows you to zoom in on things whenever you want.
