iphone 7 font

I just upgraded from an iphone 5s to the 7. The font size seems to be miniscule. I was able to enlarge the text size and add bold for my emails and messages. This works fine. However, when I am using Siri or on other sites, the font seems smaller and thinner than on the iphone 5s. It actually seems a different style as well as smaller. Pinching to enlarge is really frustrating as you have to scroll from side to side to read each line. I have searched the web but all discussions deal with the setting changes for emails and messages only. What is going on and can anyone help?

PS--Do the plus sizes (7 or 8) and the iphone x's have a larger and better font?

System > General > Accessibility.


Choice there for Larger Text. Go into that and turn on Larger Accessibility Sizes. That will give the font size slider at the bottom more of a range if needed.


There's also a Bold Text slider switch so the font isn't as thin.
