Happened to my wife's this morning. Go to settings then 'home screen and dock' and there is a choice of font size, more or bigger.

Took us all day to work that out lol Laughing 1984 One-Ten CSW

In the search bar at the top of safari when you are in defender2.net you will see two A’s of different sizes. Click on them - they adjust the font size.
You may have inadvertently changed the size.
Hope this helps.

That works ok in safari Thumbs Up but I use chrome as my preferred choice and I still can’t workout why it’s still small, wish I’d never updated Evil or Very Mad 2015 HT XS 90

Ok then. Try restarting first just in case it is a glitch. If that doesn’t work go to settings/ accessibility/display and text size/larger text and switch to on.
You then get a slider which enables you to increase the text size.
This should get the size you want. I think it also works with picture size too.

Thanks for the reply, have followed the “simple” instructions and to no avail all that has done for me is to enlarge the font in the tabs at the top of the page etc but font size on the forum are all very very small, wishing I hadn’t updated the damm thing Rolling with laughter

I will message Martin and see if it’s something on the website that doesn’t like the new Apple update Thumbs Up

On the font size slider it does say “ Apps that support Dynamic Type will adjust to your preferred reading size above“ so I am hoping that Martin can tweak something Thumbs Up

Thankyou for you help. 2015 HT XS 90

I have 13.3 installed on my iPad Air 2 and have no font size issues - both in Safari and Chrome.

I did a little Google search and found this (look at the bottom post) https://support.google.com/chrome/thread/9487841?hl=en

Basically they're saying to type into the address bar chrome://flags and scroll down to Enable text accessibility in web pages. Mine was already set to ‘Default’. Try having a play with that setting.

That's a shame it doesn't work. I have 13.3 with no issues too. It does sound like something in Chrome.
If the fix suggested by Mini Landie doesn't work, then i would do a reset.
This is found under Settings/General.Reset is the next to bottom option.
The nuclear option is to do a clean install of 13.3. This also frees up a lot of space on the iPad as it clears out all the junk files and caches, which may be causing your problems.

I’ve not changed anything on the site, And as I’m sure you can imagine it is incredibly irritating when Apple keep doing things like this.

Obviously I will have to look into it but won’t be able to immediately.

This is like Microsoft of old, breaking stuff by adding new “features” and expecting everyone to do as they are told Mad  1988 90 Td5 NAS soft top
