    Quick steps to increase the font size on WhatsApp for Android and iOS

    1. Click three dots menu and open Settings

    2. Open ‘Chats’ and navigate to Chat settings

    3. Click ‘Font size’ and change the font from Small, Medium, or Large

    Steps to Change WA font size on Web/Desktop:

    Both the WhatsApp desktop app and the web use the same version, in fact, they’re the same. Hence use the same settings across the web/desktop versions. To increase or decrease WhatsApp font size on the web and desktop, you can follow the same steps for both. Here are the simple steps to get your desired WhatsApp font size on the Web and Desktop:

    1. For WhatsApp Web, just press “Ctrl” and plus [+] or minus [-] buttons at the same time to increase or decrease WhatsApp Web font size on the Windows desktop.
    2. On Mac, you can press the Command key instead of the Control key and [+] or [-] to increase or decrease the font size.
    3. On the desktop app (Mac or Windows), you can click “View” in the top menu bar and Zoom in or Zoom out to change font size in WhatsApp.

    For desktop and web apps, WhatsApp doesn’t really support changing the font size, instead, it uses the default browser zoom-in functionality to let you increase or decrease the font size. Hence, that’s the only way of doing it.
