Larger screen !== larger text, necessarily.
- stcredzero 13y agoEspecially with all the websites locking zoom! Please quit doing that. Apple should give Mobile Safari an advanced option to always let people zoom. This way, everyone who locks zoom on websites for the sake of clueless clumsy users are still getting what they want, and people who really need zooming for legibility can get what they want too.
- micampe 13y agoTip: if you increase the text size in settings, the text will be larger when using reader mode in Safari.
- stcredzero 13y agoI'd really rather just zoom. There's no real mode switch for me any more. To me, zoom is just a UI option that's a part of the mobile browser experience. Also, sometimes reader mode doesn't work, since it depends on one of a few technical tricks. Zooming is just basic geometry. If Apple wanted to, it could always be active, and it would always work.
- micampe 13y agoI said it was just a tip, not the ideal fix. For someone it could be an acceptable solution.
- CamperBob2 13y agoYou know what I'd buy in a heartbeat... an app that coordinates with other users of the same app to launch a DDoS attack against websites that disable pinch-to-zoom, or that railroad you over to a stupid mobile site. Kickstarter, anyone?
- acqq 13y agoAnd also please quit making the fixed headers and footers. It degrades the experience for everybody who tries to actually read something.
