Limitations and Warnings
While Snapchat allows you to change the text size, there are some limitations and warnings to be aware of:
- Smaller text size may not be visible: If the text is too small, it may not be readable, even on a larger display size.
- Custom size may not work on all devices: Not all devices support custom size, so you may need to rely on smaller text sizes or the default setting.
- Settings may not be available: Some devices or Android versions may not have access to the settings menu, so you may need to use the shortcut SMS instead.
