8.2 On each screen, can the user increase the font size by at least 200% (excluding special cases)?

Test 1 (8.2)

iOS

1. Access the font size settings for the platform: Settings > Accessibility > Display and text size > Larger text.
2. Activate the "Larger accessibility sizes" button.
3. Open Control Centre and activate the Text size parameter (‘aA’ button) to display the font size gauge. Increase the value to 190%.
4. If necessary, restart the application to ensure that the parameter is taken into account by the application.
5. Check that
   • all the texts in the interface have been enlarged;
   • all the text in the interface remains legible and the functions usable;
   • content has not disappeared;
   • if any text has not been enlarged or has disappeared, that there is a method on the screen for displaying the text on demand (for example, by a long press on an icon).
6. If this is the case, the criterion is validated.

Android

1. Access the font size settings for the platform: Settings > Accessibility > Font size (depending on the version of the platform, the access path may be different);
2. Increase the font size value (slider at the bottom of the screen) to the maximum (see technical note).
3. If necessary, restart the application to ensure that the parameter is taken into account by the application.
4. Check that
   • all the texts in the interface have been enlarged;
   • all the text in the interface remains legible and the functions usable;
   • content has not disappeared;
   • if any text has not been enlarged or has disappeared, that there is a method on the screen for displaying the text on demand (for example, by a long press on an icon).
5. If this is the case, the criterion is validated. Technical note: Before Android 14, on devices without a manufacturer's overlay, the font size setting did not allow you to enlarge to 200% of the default size. This is only possible from Android 14 onwards. If you are testing on an Android device with a version prior to 14, you can combine the font size setting and the display size setting to achieve a zoom close to 200%. From Android 14 onwards, the font size setting allows you to reach 200%. On the other hand, on some versions of Android, the slider gauge may be different and offer values that allow you to achieve a zoom greater than 200%, so you will need to check that the test is only performed for a value of 200%.
