Do you use a laptop? Luckily mine has a magnifying option, if I am really stuck.

I can use one .Unfortunately it's still visually challenging.

Can look at it without nausea now but not actuslly used it yet again.

Odd as I'm able to watch TV now.

All I can think is its the actual size or closeness of screen. ??

hello Nackapan, yes I have problems with small print and unable to view whole of page(s) in pas members' section. Using a tablet saved it to 'Files' and then was able to enlarge print and view all pages. Hope you find a solution.

Is there anything on the internet where you can download a magnifier? I’d be lost without being able to stretch things that I’m trying to read.

I use a magnifier to lead labels on food items in shops. I got that from the App Store.

I don’t know if this link if of any use to you:

If it helps in future, holding down Ctrl and the + buttons on a windows pc or laptop will increase the size of what is on the screen. Replacing + with - will decrease again. 😊
