A great tip, in my eyes

February 13, 2024

Sick of squinting to read the small print? Tiny text is no match for your smartphone’s digital magnifying glass. Your phone can make minuscule text readable and menus in dark restaurants crisp and clear.

🔍 This is a great thing to remember. I use it any time I need to read a tiny model number on a device … or the color of my lipgloss.

• On iPhone, open the Apple App Store.
• Search for Magnifier to access the built-in app.
• Use the slider to zoom in and read small text, and tap the flashlight icon in low-light conditions. (It works on iPads, too!)

Use an Android? Open the Settings app, tap Accessibility, then Magnification.
