IPhone 4s - Need to increase font size and add dashes to Phone Contact Details and Recents

I am in my 40s and need reading glasses.  I can't read the Phone>Contacts details/numbers because the font is too small and there are no dashes between numbers.  Same applies to Phone>Recents but there are dashes that make the numbers more readible.  3rd party apps such as Big Names, Big Contacts don't apear to be maintained to work with new IOS releases.  Changing fonts in Accessbility doesn't alter the fonts in Contact details nor Recents.  Zoom is inconsistant and inconvient.
This should be a simple fix for Apple or a 3rd party app that will help retain middle aged iPhone users and attract new users.  No one want to use there reading glasses to read their phone.  Andriod makes font selection a snap.
Thoughs or adivce?
Thanks...
Neil

Settings>General>Accessibility>Zoom. Turn it on. That or try bifocals (I've had to wear bifocals since I was in my mid 30's) or consider monovision contacts or lasik.

  • Need to Increase Font Size..

    Poor Eyesight. (Diabetes) I need a way to INCREASE the Font size and change Type of ALL DESKTOP Headers, dropdown menues and informational text WITHIN OSX.
    Just like the "APPEARENCE TAB" in "WINDOWS DISPLAY PROPERTIES"
    Is there any hope for ME? Third Party Add-on? Can't find anything in OSX that really helps. Even Fonts set to 16 don't do much.
    Can I change to "Areil Bold?" ANY Suggestions welcome. Thanks...:)

    This is a sad topic. Just this week I scoured the internet seeking an invention to change OSX toolbar font size (as well as Safari Bookmarks font size) and the news is not good. It turns out that those fonts especially are hardwired and cannot be changed. There is a discussion that goes all the way back to Panther about this, and every year people hope for a fix (Resolution Independence it's called).
    Right here in Apple discussions a gentleman put a hack in via Terminal. It is specifically for the 27" displays. I tried it on my 13" and yes the font changes to the larger - but then other display items disappear to make room. It is like folds or pleats appear to make up the difference, and some stuff got lost in the "wrinkles". The guy with the 27" machine was happy with his choice, and said he just "lives with" the accompanying flaws. I feel that on the high-res 27" machines there must be a lot less of the aforementioned "side effects" to deal with. See here -
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=12127254&#12127254
    Try at your own risk, since Terminal operations are highly technical. I performed a clean install of OSX after I rejected the results of my own experiment. Bottom line is that more than a few people have sold or returned their Macs over this issue not because of sour grapes, but because they simply cannot read the toolbar, whereas on their PCs they always had a remedy. The issue is actually so fundamental that no one suspects a problem until they start using their new machine for the first time and cannot locate an adjusting app.

  • Visually handicap, needs to increase font size in logic pro, Command  doesn't work

    Hi,
         I'm visually handicapped, and new to logic-pro.  I'm having a miserable time reading the internal logic-pro fonts.  Command + doesn't work, and I can't find any preferrence or settings options that affect the default font sizes, any ideas?

    Unfortunately you cannot change the font size of the main fonts in Logic...
    However, there are a couple of other settings you may not be aware of...
    1) Under Logic Pro's preferences... go to Display
    Now you can change the size of the playhead and Local Windows under the General Tab
    You can increase the size of the Logic plugin windows/fonts sizes under the Mixer Tab (I have mine set to 200%)
    Note: This setting does not apply to 3rd party plugins.. only Logic's own plugins...
    Under the Piano Roll tab you can change the size of Bar/Beats/Division Lines...
    2) Using the screen zoom command... Hold down control and scroll on your mouse... will zoom in the screen...
    Note: as you are using Mountain Lion there is also a new setting under System Preferences/Accessability
    Choose Zoom on the left hand side
    Now choose Zoom Style/Picture in Picture and instead of a full screen zoom it provides you with a magnifying glass of sorts to just magnify the area arund your mouse pointer. I find this setting very useful....
    Hope this helps...

  • I need to increase font size in a text box in a book

    What am I missing here?
    I'm trying to put together a book, and I can't figure out how to make the text, in the text box, larger.
    Any help is appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Problem solved this morning.
    After reading the post: EMERGENCY: WORK LOST!
    I shut down Aperture and did a consistency check. I didn't do the rebuild. But after doing that, I am now able to adjust font sizes in a book as one would expect.
    Perhaps, when I was making no headway last night, merely re-launching aperture the normal way would have done the trick, so I don't know if the consistency check was the actual tool that fixed the problem or not.
    I suppose consistency checks and rebuilding are good to do periodically, before problems arise.

    Hi Zak, thanks for the reply.
    The filename is whatever is set to be the background fill of the site (I presume the desktop background fill, if mobile versions are set to be different). I've tried a number of different files, sizes and types/formats and the result is still the same, so as far as I can tell it's not the file itself causing the issue...
    It uploads all pages (desktop, tablet and phone versions), .css files and .html files, and even the favicon .ico file but then hangs on the first image file, which incidentally is the background fill image.
    The total number of files is said to be 154. It gets stuck on file number 24.
    Yes the "Resume" dialog appears and upon clicking it just attempts to continue from the hang at the first image file (apparently 66% of the way through).
    Re: the "BC site has changed" part - I thought as much but figured worth reporting.
    ... Incidentally, as I've written this reply, I left the "Resume" dialog open (ie neither clicking "resume" or "cancel" and just as I've finished typing it appears to have published the site successfully?!! (I must've left it for roughly 5 minutes)
    Bizarre behaviour... I'm not sure if this will repeat itself with other sites but I'm sure there's a bug here that needs looking at regardless...?!
    Any thoughts?

  • How do you increase font size in Bridge using windows 7 and a 4k monitor?  It appears as though this issue has come up previously but there is no answer.

    How do you increase font size in Bridge using windows 7 and a 4k monitor?  It appears as though this issue has come up previously but there is no answer.

    Unfortunately this will require some new programming by Adobe and there's no way to know when that will happen. In the meantime, the only option I think you have available to you is to change your resolution so that your monitor is using fewer pixels per inch.
    Kinda blows the whole value of the newer monitor but I suppose you can switch back and forth from low res when you are working in Bridge to high res when you are working in PS.
    Sorry, but for the time being, that's about it.
    Best,

  • How do I increase font size on the Home Page and E-Mail messages screens?

    I just downloaded Firefox and made it my default browser as I am having so many problems with IE 9. I am old and gray-headed and not techy. I would like to view my home page (Yahoo.com) and my E-mail correspondence in at least a size 12 Font. I went through all the option lists I could find with font size and think I saved, but nothing has happened to help me increase the font. I replied to an e-mail and set the font size at 12 but it is still as tiny as this message.
    I have tired, dry eyes. Can you help me, please?

    It isn't an issue. It's been that way since they came out with the first notebook computer. If this was so critical to your decision then why did you not check it out at an Apple Store first? When you buy sight unseen, then any problems you encounter not due to factory defects are your problems.
    You can try zooming the higher resolution scheme or look at what's available to you in Accessibility preferences.

  • When we increase font size image also increase and becomes blurred, how to solve this?

    When we increase font size then image also become large and that's why they becomes blurred, there should be a way to increase only font size not image or symbols, so that they will clear.

  • To increase font size in List Output in Report

    Hi, I have to increase the font size of my report's list output. I dont have to print it. So, please dont suggest print control. Only it needs to be displayed as an output.....
    Thanks.

    Sagar,
          If you want the font size to be more you can do that using the SAP GUI settings .The output will then appear in the increased format as it is only a list output that you are trying to see.press ALT+F12.Choose New Visual Design and then increase font size to maximum.
    Hope this helps.
    Cheers

  • Please help! How to increase font size in RemoteApp?

    I have weak-sighted user.
    There is some RemoteApp running on Windows Server 2008 R2 Standatd x64.
    I need to increase scale of fonts to 125% and use 120 dpi fonts for this user.
    But  increasing scale of fonts disabled on RDP Session.
    Option to use 120 dpi font doesn't exist.
    On Windows Server 2003 I can locally increase scale and dpi and this apply for RDP sessions of all users.
    If I locally increase font scale on Windows 2008 R2 this doesn't apply on RDP Session.
    I tried to use desktop customisation to increase fonts of Windows Title, Menu and etc for this user. But I can't increase system fonts on dialogs. 
    Please help me to increase font size for my RemoteApp.

    This is an old thread, but the problem persists on W.Server R2
    Interestingly, as Microsoft removed this functionality to solve this problem, wich in my case, with thin client's connected to the server, the problem is aggravated.
    It seems that there is not the slightest intention to solve this problem by Microsoft, since it is understood that each end-user settings, is completely independent of the configuration that should be the default Server or System Confg.
    Jesus..!!
