The time as displayed in the top status symbol bar? If that is where you mean, you cannot. The font and icon size is fixed for everything in the status bar. As it also is on the lock screen.

Correct. As I get older, my eyes need a bigger font to see the time. Right now I cant just look at my screen and know what time it is.


The status bar numbers are pretty small, I'd agree. I can see them fine with my glasses on, but without them, no. Although a lot of my problem is astigmatism, and I do wear my glasses all the time, so practically it is rarely ever a real problem.


Some things you can try to improve the visibility of the home screen status bar


settings -> general -> accessibility - turn on "Bold Text" , "Increase Contrast" and "Reduce Motion"
