iOS 15 lets you tweak text size in individual apps. Here’s how.

Before iOS 15, Apple was very strict in customizing iPhone text size. It's different now!

Although there are still restrictions, they have been significantly relaxed. Now you can fine-tune the text size within each app – an improvement, while inconspicuous, may change the way you use your phone.

This aptly named "text size" gadget is one of many accessibility tools, and has been extended when Apple launched its latest version of the mobile operating system. With it, you no longer have to worry about any app displaying exceptions due to system-wide text size settings. You also no longer have to be frustrated with those who send documents full of tiny fonts (you can still complain about them, of course).

How to use Apple's text size widget

You can only unlock the power of shrinking and enlarging text at will through the Control Center. To enter Control Center, open the Settings app, click Control Center, and find the "Text Size" option. Click the green plus sign next to it to add it to the active tools list. You can also touch and drag the three lines to the right of each item to rearrange how they appear on the screen.

Before leaving this settings page, make sure the

"Access in App" toggle on the top of the screen is turned on. If not, when you use the app, you will open Notification Center instead of Control Center.

When you finish the basic settings, go to any app and open the Control Center by swiping down from the upper right corner of the screen (swipe up from the bottom if your iPhone has a Home button). Click the

text size icon (two capital A of different sizes), and you will see a sliding ruler.

At the bottom of this ruler, there are two options: change the size of text in the currently used app, or adjust all apps. Select an option and use the slider to increase or decrease the size of the text. System-wide changes cover only 80% to 135%, but for a single app you can resize letters to 310% of the default size.

Tips for using iOS Text Size Gadgets

"Zoom in text" and "Zoom out text" may seem like simple features, but Apple's tools can sometimes be a bit picky. Changes in "In Current App" and "In All Apps" are made independently. So if you previously set the text of an app to be 160% larger than normal size and then decide to enlarge everything by 135%, the text size of that app doesn't change immediately until you open it in the app and use it Until this gadget.

It is also worth noting that since icons and buttons are not text, they do not change with the text size on the screen. While the changes will take effect immediately in some apps, such as Twitter and Apple's own messaging apps, you may need to reload other apps to see the changes. Besides that, it depends on what you decide for your needs. Because here—this time—size does matter.
