Scrolling Caller ID and when calling numbers in IOS 12

Hi there,


I believe this started in IOS 12, but I'm not 100% sure.


Whenever a number calls me, or I call a number, the number at the top of the Phone app "scrolls" and takes five seconds to see the whole number. I just want it to display the whole number, possibly in a smaller font, and be static and not move.


Is this possible? What setting would this be located in?


Thanks.

iPhone SE, iOS 12

I don't even see any option to increase text size. This isn't a desktop OS.


I guess the phone number fits on the larger iPhones without scrolling. They hate us iPhone SE owners.


Actually, the phone number would fit without scrolling, but they always show +1 in front of the phone number for some reason. So it always shows +1 (222) 222-2222 and it has to scroll. If it only showed (222) 222-2222, then it would fit without scrolling. I don't know why they are putting +1 in front of the number.
