Is there a way to increase the font size?

Is there a way through the settings or an app that will let me adjust the size of the font on my iPhone?

go to Settings > General > Accessibility > Large Text

looks like it takes care of the typical phone functions. not the web or apps etc..

hope this helps

Unfortunately you can't make it smaller tho. I love that about my BlackBerry. Being able to change font style and size is a plus to me.

Settings>General>Accessibility>Large Text>ON will let you choose a size, but it only affects Calendar, Contacts, Mail, Messages, and Notes.

For sites that Safari shows a Reader tab for, you can use that and then enlarge text.

Edit: got distracted before hitting Reply...

Sweet, thanks Guys!! I don't need to make it smaller, I'm getting older and my eyesight isn't what it used to be. Surprised to see you over here Jared. I'm a BlackBerry guy myself, but I just bought my wife an iPhone and have been playing around with it. So far I'm impressed, especially with accuracy of the keyboard, which is a big deal to me. I'll be back with more questions later, Thanks again.
