Why can't I expand the screen to read small print...

in cartoons & court filings & others that my 78 yr old eyes have trouble with

I have a tablet & phone, both android running the chrome browser & neither allows me to expand the screen by using my fingers.

On DU3 I never had that problem.

Is this something you're still working on, because it's very frustrating.

But it looks like it might be Android related.

I am able to pinch and zoom DU4 with no problems on my iPhone.

I'll be looking into this one. Thanks for reporting.
