Color blindness and the colors used in PocketSmith
If you are color blind, there are few areas in PocketSmith where it may be hard to see specific detail due to the color used.
If you are using Chrome as your web browser, you may want to try the Color Enhancer Chrome extension made by Google. We have heard from color blind users that this really helps to see differences clearer.
Increasing PocketSmith font size
While adjusting font size, in-app would be feedback for now, depending on your browser, you can increase the font size using their zoom functionality.
You can find more details on how to do this in Firefox here: Font size and zoom - increase the size of web pages for Chrome here: Change text, image, and video sizes (zoom).
