Font size on square register reduced again!

There was a update about a year ago that reduced the font size and keyboard font size. It made using the hardware hard but still doable. 

 

Recently the sizes have gotten smaller again! From a recent update. This new even smaller font is NOT doable. PLEASE FIX THIS. 

 

I had contacted the support and they do not seem aware of this issue, even telling me to change the font size when the setting is not there. 

 

Please do something about this square!

Hi @Goodandjef, thank you for your post and I understand your frustration. 

 

At this time, the ability to customize font size on the Square Register would be a feature request and is not currently available. 

 

A current workaround for this could be using the magnification function within your Settings. This function allows you to enlarge a selected portion of the main display on your Square Register, allowing you to zoom in and out with ease.

 

To enable magnification, please follow these steps:

  • Tap the down arrow at the top of Square Register > tap Settings.
  • Tap Hardware > Accessibility.
  • Tap Magnification, then toggle on the Magnification option.

Once you’ve enabled magnification on your Square Register:

  • Triple-tap the main display screen with one finger to enlarge that area of the display. This is the only magnification level available and cannot be adjusted.
  • Press, hold and drag two fingertips around the screen to pan around the display.
  • Triple tap to stop magnification and revert to a normal display experience.

The magnification feature does not enlarge the font on the main display or customer screen.

 

I hope this workaround helps a bit! Please let me know if you end up having any other questions or concerns.
