          @kanab2 Are you on focal (20.04) or xenial (16.04)? If focal, then scaling and restarting Lomiri doesn't work yet if you're still using the store version.

          And BTW, it changes the whole system's scaling and not just font size.

            @kanab2 Are you on 16.04? It used to work for me, the fonts are way too small for my aged eyes. Still waiting for the tweak tool on 20.04.

            Thete was an option to restart Unity 8 in the tweak tool, or you could use the undocumented feature. Open more than 4 apss and leave them running then do a long press on the power button and select 'restart'. If you had closed all your apps the phone would restart, but with several apps open you just get a restary of Unity8/Lomiri.

              Hello, I have 20.04 (2023 W13) version., last update 25.07.23.
              So is it any way to make fonts bigger then defaults.?
