Font size on iOS/iPhone mobile app

revsnapple

We need to be able to change the font size in the iOS/iPhone mobile app. This is gross negligence with regard to accessibility and a failure of basic customer service.

This feature has been requested for OVER three years and thousands of people have requested it. The feedback forum that pops up claims that it is "Completed" - which it has been for Android users, but NOT for iOS/iPhone users.

I was excited when Apple added the Text Size feature to iOS 15 (allowing users to change the text size for individual apps) since maybe this workaround would solve Discord's negligence... but I was so disappointed when I discovered that it only worked for the system menus in Discord and not the actual messages themselves.

The pandemic has introduced more people of all backgrounds (...and ages, says the older millennial whose eyesight Ain't What It Used To Be™) to Discord, and I STRONGLY encourage you to make this feature a priority.

    Didn't want to clog up the original post, so here are screenshots of the iOS Text Size feature in action:

    I submitted a request for this as well. Not positive, but I think the latest update even reduced the font size further. This falls under ADA-/Americans with Disabilities Act. Needs to be added.
