Notifications have shrunk!

[AC Question]

After the update, my notifications have become microscopic. Used to be bold. Now I cannot read any of the notifications without wearing my glasses. Quite disappointed that the upgrade messed up my settings on that. And I have searched everywhere and haven't found a solution to make the notifications larger or bold. Any suggestions anyone?

Hi! Thanks for registering. I moved your thread to the S6 forum where it'll be easier getting help from other owners.

Hi Javier,

I have a Samsung Galaxy S6. Thank you for responding.

I searched a little bit and found many users complaining about this same issue, but not a definite solution. This is the closest to a 'fix' that I found. I haven't tested it, but worth a try.

"On my Verizon S7 Edge with Nougat, I am able to increase status bar, notification area and font size by changing these settings: display, screen zoom and font - set screen zoom to large - this enlarges everything on*screen, including text and notifications. I then reduce text size to small which does not affect the notification and status bar. Be sure to hit the apply button on upper right. Hope that helps".
