There’s a lot of information on the homescreen. To fit it on a phone’s screen its necessary to keep the text rather small. I’m aware that this does not work for everyone and developed a useful accessibility feature for everyone with less than perfect vision.
How to Activate the Accessibility Feature
Double-tap on any of the widgets on the Homescreen to expand the widget to full size. You will then be able to swipe through each of the widgets in a full-width view (see below).
Note: For this feature to work, your phone’s text-size needs to greater than the default size.
