iPad: App Font Size Too Big

Post by akhenaten0 »

On my iPad Pro 12.9 inch, the font is too big in the sidebar, settings, pop-ups, and some parts of the system share-sheet. I’ve got the system font turned down to the lowest setting (Settings app / Display & Brightness / Text Size), but all the menu fonts in Bookends are as large as when the system Text Size is turned up to maximum. Is this a bug in the Dynamic Type implementation, or is the font used Bookends set separately from the system—and, if so, can it be changed? See attached images for a side-by-side comparison of what I’m seeing.

I just checked a few more apps, and the navigation title wasn't updated there also. Maybe this will be solved automatically when we switch to SwiftUI framework in future versions of Bookends for iOS.

Hi, I’m a dummy. I don’t know how I did it, but I seem to have set the Bookends font extra large in the Per-App settings (https://sixcolors.com/post/2023/01/the- ... ssibility/)

All fixed now!
