The Apple Watch — one of the best smartwatches around — does a great job displaying important information at a glance, but not everyone is going to have an easy time reading text on its tiny screen. If you're here, you might be wondering how to change text size on your Apple Watch.
Fortunately, just like with the iPhone, you can easily change the Apple Watch's text size to better suit your eyes. Here's how to adjust text on your Apple Watch until it's just right.
For additional tips, tricks, and how-tos, be sure to check out our complete guide on how to use the Apple Watch.
1. Open the Apple Watch app on your iPhone.
2. Select Brightness & Text Size.
3. Use the second slider to adjust text size.
The farther right you move the slider, the bigger the text will be on your Apple Watch.
You'll now see larger or smaller text in Apple Watch apps such as Messages and Mail.
