The fonts suddenly too small to read on MNmobile

What's happened, it's all so small it's totally unreadable. It's always fitted to the iPhone screen, now I have to massively enlarge it and scroll from side to side to read the posts.

There were repeated requests on the other thread about the mobile site for the font size to increase, so the font size was altered to try and accomodate the requests! Different devices will have different font size renderings, however. The understanding was that the previous size was considered too large on the iPhone (3 and 4). Perhaps we need a vote.

AitchTwoOh · 12/11/2010 14:38

i vote that it's still a tad too big on talk but fine elsewhere. so i am a vote for SMALLER, controversially. Grin

Too too small for iPhone! Can't read a thing, please change it back Tech!!

ethelina · 12/11/2010 14:59

OK I am at home on the laptop now. AdamTech does anyone have access to an iphone there? Because it is UNREADABLE in its present format. I maintain that even sideways its too hard to see, and my fingers are too large to accurately click on each icon, it is as difficult as using the normal site on the phone.

It's far too small on the iPhone 3 now :(

LoveBeingAMummy · 12/11/2010 15:04

We're temporarily putting the font sizes back to how they originally were, while we go through other fixes and then we can determine what the best approach is for this whole sizing business. Fickle!

LoveBeingAMummy · 12/11/2010 15:25

Yipee thanks adam x

ethelina · 12/11/2010 15:33
