Use Font size for text and Display size for icons and controls. Change one setting at a time so the interface stays comfortable without hiding important buttons.
Steps
- Open Settings and choose Display
- Open Display size and text
- Adjust the font slider, then the display slider
- Preview several apps and keep the clearest setting
Check the result
Test the change before moving on. Android menu names vary across Google
Pixel, Samsung Galaxy, Motorola, OnePlus and other phones, and a carrier or
work profile can also restrict a setting. Use Settings search when a label is
different and check the support page for the exact model before erasing data,
resetting connections or changing an account.
Privacy and safety
Read every confirmation screen, keep a current backup and grant only the
permissions the task requires. Stop if the phone becomes unusually hot, shows
physical battery damage or asks for a password or payment on an unexpected
site.
