5 steps · about 2 minutes · practice it with SafePhone Pro

Step by step

  1. Open "Settings" (the gray gear).
  2. Scroll down and tap "Tips & support": the phone's own help, in plain words.
  3. In the search box, type what you want to do. For the practice: text
  4. Tap "Make the text bigger" and read the steps.
  5. Tap "Open the setting": the tip takes you right there.

These steps are written for SafePhone, a pretend Android-style smartphone in your web browser. On your own smartphone, the buttons and menus may look a little different, but the idea is the same.

Practice it where nothing can break

SafePhone works like a real smartphone, but nothing you do goes anywhere. Try every button, make mistakes and start again.
