Make Facebook easier to read

Updated October 25, 2026

Facebook in the High Contrast theme

Facebook's text is small, its feed is busy and its colors can't be adjusted. If you have dyslexia, low vision or tired eyes, a few changes make a big difference, and most of them are free.

Bigger text, same layout

In the Fonts tab, the Text size slider enlarges text across Facebook, up to 130%, without blowing up photos and the layout the way browser zoom does (free).

Fonts designed for reading

All three are free. See every font.

Colors that are easier on the eyes

All free.

Less distraction and motion

How to try it

  1. Add Profile Customizer to Chrome, Edge or Brave.
  2. Open facebook.com and open the customizer: click the round rainbow button at the bottom right, click the extension icon, or press Alt+Shift+C.
  3. Try fonts and themes with live preview, and keep what reads best.

Questions

Is OpenDyslexic free?

Yes. OpenDyslexic, Lexend and Atkinson Hyperlegible are all in the free version.

Is this the same as browser zoom?

Zoom makes everything bigger, including images and the layout, so you scroll more. The Text size slider only enlarges text.

Does it work with screen readers?

Yes. Profile Customizer only changes how Facebook looks, so Facebook's screen reader support is unchanged.
