Sometimes the problem isn’t that AOL is broken.
Sometimes the letters are simply too small.
You open your email and think:
“Why did everything suddenly get so tiny?”
You lean closer to the screen.
You squint.
You change your glasses.
And eventually you think:
“There has to be an easier way.”
There is.
You Can Adjust the Text Size
AOL’s official help documentation explains that AOL Desktop Gold includes an option to change the mailbox text size. You can access it through the mail options and choose a larger font size.
This can make reading your inbox much more comfortable.
Technology Should Work for You
There is no prize for reading tiny letters.
If a larger font makes your computer easier and more comfortable to use, use a larger font.
The same idea applies to:
- Screen magnification
- Display scaling
- Browser zoom
- Larger text on phones
- Larger text on tablets
- Easier-to-read settings
Technology should adapt to the person using it.
Don’t Be Embarrassed to Ask
Many people think:
“I should know how to do this.”
Why?
You don’t need to memorize every setting on your computer.
If you have a question, ask.
That’s what support is for.
