How to Make iOS 9 Easier to Read in Just 7 Taps

How to Make iOS 9 Easier to Read in Just 7 Taps,If Apple alien the sparse, apple-pie iOS 7 architecture that lives on in iOS 9, bags blogged out in dismay. “It’s too lightweight! The fonts are too spindly! The accomplishments is too bright! There aren’t rectangles about buttons—we don’t apperceive what’s a button and what’s not! The Ascendancy Center is transparent—we can’t apprehend it! You confused our cheese—we abhorrence this!”

Well, Apple may not accede with you about the super-lightweight design. But at atomic it has accustomed you the options to “fix” it. You can accomplish the blazon bigger and bolder, the colors heavier, the accomplishments dimmer. You can restore outlines about buttons. And so abundant more.

All of these options anticipate in Settings->General->Accessibility.
