There are countless settings to make the Apple Watch as useful as possible in day-to-day use, including the ability to make its font/text easier to read. The Watch has proven to be one of the most important products in all of Apple's lineup. While it's a fairly accessible device right out of the box, though, trying to read a lot of text on a small display isn't always easy.

As for why someone would be reading so much text on their wrist, it's because the Apple Watch can do just about anything. From reading the stats of a recent workout, catching up on text messages, or even reading the news, there's so much that can be done on one of Apple's smallest devices ever. While having so much functionality is fantastic, the default text/display settings for the Apple Watch can often make it difficult for everyone to easily read. Thankfully, there are a few ways around this — the most important of which is changing the font size.

Per Apple's instructions, press the digital crown on the Apple Watch to view all of the installed applications. Find the Settings app (it looks like a gear icon), tap it, scroll down the settings menu, and then tap 'Display & Brightness.' On this page, there are a few different options that all make reading text less of a chore — including the ability to change the Apple Watch's font size. Just tap 'Text Size' and then tap the 'Aa' buttons on the next page to increase/decrease the font size. There are six sizes available, and as users change it, example text is displayed below to show off a preview of what the new text size looks like.

Other Apple Watch Settings That Make Reading Easier

In that same Display & Brightness menu, there are two other settings that can also help with improving readability on the Apple Watch. At the very top is a toggle for manually changing brightness, with there being three levels for users to choose from. While the Apple Watch does automatically adjust its brightness according to surrounding light, having a higher default brightness level helps to ensure that the display is never too dim.

Last but not least, the Display & Brightness page also has an option called 'Bold Text.' Just like the name implies, turning this on will make all text on the Apple Watch bolder. It's a fairly subtle change, but it's yet another way to make text larger, more impactful, and easier to read at a quick glance.
