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

Step by step

  1. Open "Settings" (the gray gear), then tap "Accessibility".
  2. Tap "Magnification".
  3. Turn on "Magnification". Now three quick taps zoom the screen in (the next lesson shows you how).

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.
