is there a way to enlarge the fonts on the calendar from the wigits that I put on my homescreen. I struggle to see the writing

[@theblindlife]

This is the stock calendar widget that came on the phone, probably not. I would recommend trying third-party calendar apps. You may be able to find one that lets you adjust the font size!

[@lorrainefleming2738]

Hi, are these apps compatible with Nokia? Or do I need a different phone. I need a phone with adjustable size font (very large) I keep looking at DORO but my mind is wore out and I don't have a clue as so many phones to choose from. My nan recently been reg blind but loves her text and calls. Any advice would be great 👍 thank you 😊

[@theblindlife]

it depends on which Nokia you have. I have a phone playlist with lots of information you may find helpful

[@theblindlife]

Hi, I just want more icons to fit on my screen in the app drawer... how do we do that?..

[@joliebarata5065]

thank you so much

[@priyankamalik272]

Can you please tell me how to increase font size In watsapp beyond the large option in the watsapp settings

[@theblindlife]

You’ll need to enlarge the font on your whole phone in order to get it larger in the app. I’ve got a video about how to enlarge font and android.

[@dxeadrick1522]

I need to shrink mine instead of elarging it.. How do you do it??

with Samsung Galaxy Note 4 you can get nice big simple icons with bigger font without needing any app!
you just go to "apps" then "settings" and then under "personalisation" click "easy mode",
select "easy mode" then DONT FORGET to click "DONE" and now nice big icons and big font,
width: 3 icons
height: 4 icons,
bigger font
to return back to small icons:
click "easy settings", then "Easy mode", then "Standard mode", THEN DONT FORGET to select "DONE"
width: 5 icons
height: 5 icons
smaller font
I dont know about other Samsung Galaxies

[@theblindlife]

Thanks for that!

[@topdog1128]

how can i do that on my tab s? it doesnt have personalization...

[@theblindlife]

If you tell me what tablet you have I might be able to help figure it out

[@topdog1128]

I have the galaxy tab s 8.4... How do I increase the columns on the app drawer to accomodate more apps in a page?... thanks for the reply..

[@theblindlife]

You will probably need to install a third party launcher like NOVA or APEX to do that. Then it will be in the launchers settings.

[@garylee7774]

Acted like it was free. This is easy to do for free, without so much junk to download. Nova is more for root. Works better. Anyone that does this, beware.
