Magnification limited to 200-800%

[adrianh]

It's there a way to get the triple tap magnification to utilize the 100-200% region? There are times that this would be really useful and it's really annoying that I can't use it.

What phone do you have?

I tried my Accessibility Magnification setting and do not see anywhere that shows an actual percentage, so it would be my guess that each manufacturer is doing this differently. On my S21 I can use two fingers and swipe up from the bottom of the screen, the way one would open notifications from the top, and touch where I want the display magnified, using a pinch gesture to control the zoom level. No where in any of that does it tell me what level I'm at however.

Depending on your device you may be able to adjust font sizes independent of icon size. Again on my S21 I can adjust font size independent of icon size to make text easier to read or I can adjust the overall display size which can make everything bigger or smaller. Just a note on resizing the display, it can affect the way apps render. For instance in Google Maps when I increased the display size I lost the "report" button in landscape mode because it got pushed off of the screen. Maps still worked and displayed navigation OK, I just lost that button because there wasn't enough room to display at that size.

There are also magnification apps at the Play Store if your stock magnifier isn't giving you what you want.
