Describe the solution you'd like?

When you zoom in Warp there are some UI elements whose text remains the same. The settings dialog is an example of this.

I think the urgency of this issue has increased with the recent addition of Warp AI. It's one thing for me to lean in every once in a while when I need to modify preferences. It's another lean in to read large blocks of text as generated by the AI. Warp AI is borderline unusable for me if I can't increase the font size.

If anyone else wants to see this feature come to life in Warp, please :+1: and subscribe to this request as it helps us gauge interest. We will post any updates here.

Please talk to you lawyers regarding the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Standards for Accessible Design. I assume your investors want make money. It may be hard for you to charge money to companies if there are complaints that you don't follow basic accessibility standards.

Some places where the UI font looks really bad:

[Jinjiang]

Warp AI +1. My eyes burn every day on this panel 😵‍💫

[EtherealRise]

is the font of AI pannel also Immutable at this time ?

[cameronbarker]

I just brought this up in this discord thread. If there is anyway as a community member, I could support, I'd be happy to work on a PR.

Warp Essentials / Warp AI and other sidebars: the font size is also to small for me

[AliYusuf95]

Agree, I'm using 2560x1440 external screens

tool tips, context menu, side menu and settings model all of them have inconsistent font size behavior

If this is implemented, I would like for the user to be able to unify their GUI and terminal preferences if they so desire. I've no reason to have them separate.

10 months later, still NOT Seen any improvements for this font issue.

[rickandm00rty]

I love everything about warp terminal but this limitation is killing me. More importantly, can we get some sort of acknowledgement from the warp team?? I see this issue and one more that was closed and then reopened. Is this being worked on at all? Not technically possible?

[Igetin]

I emailed the Warp feedback team about this, and they said there were "no immediate plans to allow for increasing the size" of UI elements other than the terminal font.

[enisdenjo]

literally the main reason I dont use warp...

[muescha]

Is there an other way to force this fontgate?

[muescha]

Could a team member elucidate the reasons (or technical challenges) that are deemed too formidable to address, resulting in the neglect of individuals with visual impairments?

Or, alternatively, neglecting those who utilize high-resolution monitors and require larger fonts for readability? (Given the constraint of large monitors, the sole solution seems to be reducing the monitor resolution, which entails wasteful spending to operate a high-resolution monitor at a lower resolution.)

[alexhhn]

Great project, but really bad default UI font size choice.

I understand that making this feature might be time-consuming, but how about just provide two radio buttons of font size (default, large) as a start for people with bad eyesight?

[saintsloth]

+1. I don't have very good eyesight and therefore have a large monitor on which the font is barely visible. And this is the only reason why I can’t use the warp.

[yssoe]

is there a reason i can't increase the warp ai font size? what an annoying thing.

[AhmedBaset]

Warp is still unusable because of this

[lemizhtu]

Is there anything new about this?

[zvischutz]

I would also mention the tab title size text that can't be changed (as far as I saw)
