The iPhone screen can be difficult to read for some users, so thankfully there are some options that can improve readability on the device. If you have an iPhone 6 Plus, then you can adjust the display zoom. But every iPhone model allows you to change the brightness of the display, or fiddle with some additional screen options that might make things better.
One setting that you may find of particular use is the ability to bold the text on the iPhone. You can choose to enable the bold text by following a few short steps, and the result can be very helpful without having a significant impact on how you use your iPhone.

The steps in this article were performed on an iPhone 6 Plus, in iOS 9.3. Note that choosing to turn on bold text will cause your iPhone to restart, and turning it off will cause it to restart again.

Step 3: Tap the button to the right of Bold Text.
