Scaling Fonts Automatically in Deezer iOS app (support Dynamic Type)

Hello,

I have noticed that you are playing with a new font and i personally like it.
But besides the new font, please, you need to implement dynamic font support for the app.

In some areas of the app the text is to small for those who need larger text for better readability.


I do not want you to make the text bigger for everyone, I would like you to make an option (with dynamic type support) to make bigger and much easier text to read for those who are comfortable using larger text sizes.

Thanks,
Alexandru

    Not yet @Shax but thank you for asking!

    I've heard our teams talking about it internally recently, so it's still on our radar. As soon as I find out more about it, I'll be sharing with you here :thumbsup_tone2:

    I was wondering if ever the app for iOS would get some more readable text? Such tiny letters.

    Hi - not only is the font tiny and hard to select, but it’s not the best for people who are dyslexic. It would improve everyone’s experience to have more space between selections, particularly when choosing a playlist to add a song to. Also, doing a different shade for each row would help.

    Also, piling on for an option for larger font and dyslexic friendly fonts. - Thanks!!

    This is honestly what really keeps me from switching from Spotify. On iPhone 14 the text size in Deezer is ridiculously small and hard to read what’s on my screen. The settings buttons increase with my iOS text size but the playlists menu and the rest are just too small.

    There has been some progress, but only half-baked. On some main screens the text size increases with Dynamic Type, but on album and playlist screens the text is still tiny and does not change with the iPhone’s text size slider. Why was the implementation stopped half way?

    Hi @JotI, thanks for sharing your feedback.
    Our developers are trying to correctly implement the Dynamic Type for our new resources (/screens).
    But unfortunately, there are no plans to rework the existing screens for now.
