We can easily adjust these options from the menu screen, where there are the options of “brightness” and “sleep”. These two options are very important because the display is largely responsible for the battery consumption. The screen is what consumes more battery in our system, and adjusting the brightness and timeout can help to lengthen or shorten its battery life.

On the menu screen we have also the option to change the font size. By default, the device is configured to display a “normal” font size. With this option, you can choose between small, normal, large and extra large.

In addition, there are some applications that allow us to better adjust the font size, adapting the device so it can be used by people with vision problems, elderly people or children. An example is Big Launcher, which you can find in the Play Store.
