Hi there,

Thanks for writing in! Try adding the following code in the Theme Options > CSS:

@media screen and (max-width: 767px) {
    p {
        font-size: 16px;
    }
}

Sometimes it can get a bit difficult to find out the right selector to be able to write the required CSS codes. A handy tool that can help you in this is Google Chrome dev tools. I am sharing the resource that you can refer to get started with dev tools.

Thank you! And what about increasing the font size when viewing on a tablet?

Hi There,

That depends on how big the screen of your tablet. Please see your device’s Media Queries here.

Then use the font-size property to adjust the font size on that screen/device.

Then find the proper CSS code selector using the Chrome browser Developer Toolbar

Hope it helps,
Cheers!
