help with bold font.

Good afternoon all.

I have a problem with my eyesight that means I can't see or easily read close up font on my google news feeds and lots of other web sites.

I need a way of making ALL fonts BOLD so that I can read them.

I already have everything set to wawgmtm size but can't make all fonts appear as bold can anyone help or developers do something?

Is there a better font you can download to use @mark2jag via Settings, Display, Font size and style, tap on font style ' default '

This is with screen zoom, font size max and in bold. Sorry if I offend but if you can't read that then you should see an optician.

@mark2jag: You may wish to try heading to Settings > Accessibility > Visibility Enhancements > Magnifier Window > On, to magnify content shown on screen. When this is turned on, use the Accessibility button at the bottom of the screen to quickly show or hide the magnifier window. Alternatively, check out the Magnification options, such as Triple Tap To Magnify, and Use Shortcut To Magnify.

Thank you one and all for all help and suggestions that have been offered.
in the end I went into google settings and adopted the high contrast option and ramped the text size up to 120%.
This seemed to sort all my issues and I'm now a happy bunny once more
