Scrolling Caller ID and when calling numbers in IOS 12

Hello, guys, my colleague just found how to fix this problem! You need to change the display zoom from ZOOMED to STANDART.

My husband had the scrolling number problem on his phone after updating to 12. He changed from Zoomed to Standard and it worked for him. The scrolling stopped.

Did you increase the text size in Settings? If so, that's likely what's causing that.

It happens when the name is too big to fit across the screen. If you are calling “Pat” it won’t scroll. However, if you call “Pat from Phoenix, Arizona (as named in your phone) then it’s going to scroll!

try changing your text size, if it's too big it will scroll.

Alisa, that's fine. But obviously no one wants that to happen and it's a fairly recent thing. We want to shrink the text so it doesn't scroll. There's no way to do that. Changing the font size does not work.

I have this issue too, after upgrading to ios 12. Leave feedback at apple.com/feedback. It's the only way they'll consider reversing this unusual update.

I have the same problem and I don't believe it has anything to do with the text size. The number displayed just fine before iOS 12 was installed and I've NEVER changed the text size.

This is yet another stupidity from Apple and why they are going to lose out to Android within 5 years. I'm a big Apple supporter (or was, anyway) but they CONTINUE to release things without testing them, and CONTINUE to make unpopular changes. And, there are a lot of things that simply don't work like 2-factor authentication (for example, when I sign in on my laptop, their 2-factor authentication system puts the code that needs to be entered right on the same device which makes the 2-factor authentication useless). But, that's a topic for another forum.

I know! It's so irritating to sit and stare at my screen for 5 secs just to see the full no. Please fix this asap guys

Scrolling numbers of incoming calls is extremely irritating. I am forced to gaze at my phone for several seconds with each incoming call to determine if it is something I want to answer. Please let me know when you have a solution for this totally unnecessary and problematic "feature".

Just joining in — in case there’s ever a solution to one of the dumbest “features” I’ve ever seen. Ever.

I hate this new "feature". I have a disability which makes it very difficult to read the name of the incoming caller. Please fix!

Yeah. One more step to android for me as well😠

Nope, Text Size doesn't affect the phone number display.

No solution yet?
