Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

In apps the text will be the same size across all iPhones - the layout will just scale to the screen size.

On web sites I'd expect the same as it is controlled by the layout and style sheet, although mobile safari will sometimes 'help' by increasing the font size above that set in the stylesheet if it thinks it will be rendered unreadably small.

you and me both! Of course you can just stretch the screen with your fingers to increase the font size when reading it...
