Switched a a S7Edge, got a question...

[Bimmerman]

The phone is ok, but def is not as nice. I have comes to terms with letting the Note go and bought a used S7Edge as I plan to switch back the Note of whatever Samsung ends up calling it the day it comes out.

My question is, how can I make the font as small as the Note on the S7E? I've get the settings set to as small as it goes but my email and text are not nearly as small as the font on the Note 7.

The email client and the text messaging app have their own independent settings for font size... Volume down while in the keyboard screen or pinching should shrink the text font size and the email client will have the settings within the app itself...

Neither of those worked in the mail app.

What carrier are you on? If you are on VZW they removed display scaling from the menus but there is a work around. If on another carrier you will find the setting under display.

I am on VZW, have a link to the work around?

Don't be put off by all the text, it took me 5 minutes from start to finish to complete. Scroll down to bottom of the article for a bullet point list containing the steps to take.

Here you go: VZW DPI scaling workaround.

This worked for me on my new S7E. Makes a big difference.
