      Is there a way to enlarge the windows of installed snaps? Currently the tiny text requires a magnifying glass to see 🙂

        Hi @Ontario

        The snap package you can install using snapz0r are often not intended to be used on a mobile phone.
        So for each software it will require tweaking in order to be usable with a small touch screen.

        There is no way Ubuntu Touch can accomodate for every GUI software out there.

          @AppLee thanks AppLee

          So for many snaps this would fall into the domain of knowledgeable app developers to tweak and make useable. Could an app developer then offer this in the Open Store?

            Hi @Ontario

            It really depends.
            Some apps can be tweaked using configuration files, some other would need a complete overall of the GUI.
            There are also limitations with snaps at the moment, for example not being able to use the On Screen Keyboard, ...

            Without more information on what you have in mind I can only say.
            1- Try it out
            2- Try to make it work for you
            2.a If you can't then move on 🤷
            2.B If you made it work for you => Try to make it work for others or fetch help to achieve this new goal.
