Bright screen, pale text

[Kathryn de Belle]

Hello! I was hoping a larger screen would make it easier to read stuff on my iPhone 5. Sadly this is not so. I've turned the screen brightness as far down as I can, but it is still harder to read, particularly with the pale grey text.

You can go into your Accessibility settings and make the text "bold" and also larger. I find that helps. I am hopeful that Apple is hearing our complaints about the graphics and will make some changes with updates to the iOS.

Thank you. I have already enlarged the print size, which is fine where that works. I shied away from choosing bold text because it said it would close down my phone. That presumably would be temporary but nonetheless it sounded somehow punitive. I'll try it.

All it does is turn it off and then on again...a reset. The bold makes a huge difference for me!

Yes, I did it thanks. It is much easier to read.
