Increase Text Size

I've used text messaging for years and always reach for my reading glasses, a small source of irritation, never once thinking that I could simply make the messages larger by increasing the font size.  Until I saw large letters on someone else's phone.  Dope!  Homer Simpson moment.

My Android phone allows me to change just the font size for the Messaging app, which is all I really want.  iOS devices can also increase their font size, but it applies across email and some other apps, which I wouldn't care for.

The procedure for changing font size varies by device, so best to Google it or just explore your phone to find it.
