    Unable to zoom/magnify screen while cloud streaming to Android phone


    Had my first cloud gaming session today and while I was impressed, I was hampered by the tiny text on the screen. (Playing a text heavy game, Stellaris).

    The Gamepass app on Android does not appear to support "pinch to zoom" to magnify the screen, which would be ideal. I also tried using the built-in Android accessibility magnifier, but there's some kind of bug or limitation - whenever the Android accessibility feature is enabled (even when it's not being actively used to zoom the screen) the controller D-pad and joystick don't work.

    Does anyone have a workaround or any other alternatives for handling tiny text on a tiny phone screen? Is there a place to formally enter a bug report for the issue I was having with the built-in Android magnifier, and / or a feature request for a native zoom/magnify feature in the Xbox cloud streaming app?

    Xbox Magnifier

    The magnifier feature is so useful on the xbox because you could zoom in to stuff and zoom back out.
    That is by definition what magnifying something is.

    Hello Roșca how are you?

    My name is Ezequiel I'm an Independent Consultant.

    Yes, is very easy. If using a controller, press and hold the Xbox button  until it vibrates, press the View button  and select Yes.

    To turn it off, hold the Xbox button  until it vibrates, then press the Show button  again.

    Alternatively, you can press the Xbox  button to open the dashboard, then go to Profile & System > Settings > Accessibility > Magnifier and check the box next to Magnifier On.

    To disable it, uncheck the box.
    To activate Magnifier if you are using a keyboard, press the Windows logo key + plus sign (+).

    To disable it, press Windows logo key + Esc.

    You can also activate using the controller.

    Use the right stick  to interact with on-screen items.

    Use the left stick  to interact with items on the screen.

    Use the right trigger  to zoom in.

    Use the left trigger  to zoom out.

    If you want to maintain a specific magnification while gaming, follow the steps above to use Magnifier and press the Xbox  button twice. By doing this, you will be able to maintain the magnification while using the controller to play the game. To return to the magnifier controls, press the Xbox  button twice.

    Screen Zoom

    My Xbox One X suddenly really zooms in. Not the magnifier issue, it's super zoomed in the corner of a screen at all times. Brand new xbox, tried resetting loads and just doesn't have any impact.
    In addition, some TV's have a zoom option as well. So if what has already been mentioned does not work, perhaps check the TV Zoom settings.

    I know my LG TV has Zoom options.

    You could have enabled magnifier by mistake.

    Zoom in/out with the Controller: Hold down the Xbox button of the controller until it vibrates. Press the
    View button and then use the left stick to move to the zoom selector to the desired area. Press
    Left Trigger to zoom out. Tap on B to exit the
    Magnifier
