Your earlier post was in reference to the VIP7802. Is this post related to the Bell Streamer? If so, you can not increase the text size on either of these.

Just installed Bell Fibe TV. Is there a way to increase the font / size of the menu when viewing? Also, if I've scrolled ahead to see what is on a certain channel this evening - lets say 9:00 - 10:00 pm..... and I want to see another channel... when i enter that channel it takes me back to the current time and I have to scroll ahead 2, 3, 4, 5 .... hours. Why does it stay in that time period?

Hi there @Leo2

Welcome to the Bell Community. We're excited to hear that you are a new Fibe TV subscriber, and we appreciate any feedback 🙂

You are not currently able to modify font size in the TV Guide. 

When you have scrolled ahead in the guide, to stay within that future time slot, simply scroll up/down within the Guide to see what will be airing (instead of inputting the TV channel number).

Please let us know if you have any other questions.

You can scale text up to 30% bigger on the Streamer in Device Preferences under Display and Audio.  I assume that’s because it’s running Android 12 and the VIP is still at Android 10.  Once they update the VIP to the latest Android 12-based firmware, which is being trialed, I assume you’ll have that option there as well.

I am a new Bell Fibe subscriber. I find the font in the guide so small that I can’t read it without squinting or getting up and standing close to the TV while navigating.

I’ve tried to find the setting to increase the font size but have had no luck.

Such a basic function that I cannot imagine that you can’t do this??

Is there a way to make the text size larger on the fibe tv guide? 
My mother is vision impaired and finds the text a little too small to read comfortably.
