How to increase font size on new TEAMS app?

Since I updated to the new TEAMS app, my font size is incredibly small. The "zoom" setting in the top right corner doesn't change the overall display - it only makes the minimize/close buttons larger. There is no font size setting anywhere. Adjusting my computer settings does nothing, either. Please help!

In the upper right corner you should see your profile/avatar icon. To the left of that are 3 dots. Click on the dots, and adjust that Zoom setting there. It should affect the entire app, not just a single conversation thread. The icon on the right of the +/-, will reset the zoom level.

Good luck!

    What type of OS are you on? I was on a mac and it truly drove me crazy if my hand brush against the Ctrl key while i was trying to scroll. It would shrink down to the size of a mole on the back of a flea.

    Hello Everyone.

    I think the issue is related to Windows 11 and not just Teams. I also find File Explorer tiny too. Perhaps the MS Engineers have better eyesight.

    Does anyone know how we can get this question elevated to a Microsoft person?

    Hello Nicole_782242, thanks for coming into forums. I'm Myk, an Independent Advisor and I'll be more than happy to help you.

    Kindly check if there's an available update for the MS teams app by clicking your Profile picture at the top right, click on Check for updates option.

    If it's already up to date, you may attempt performing a Repair to MS Teams app by following the steps below:

    • Right-click the Start button (lower-left corner), and select Apps and Features on the pop-up menu.
    • Select the MS Teams app in the list
    • Click on Advanced options
    • Click Repair

    However, if it's still not adjusting the font size, you may uninstall, and reinstall MS Teams app for further isolation.

    If you require any further information, then please don’t hesitate to get in contact. I will be more than happy to assist you further.

    Kind Regards, Myk
