Screen magnifier

Software that enlarges part of the screen so a person with low vision can read it.

A screen magnifier enlarges a region of the screen, often several times over, and follows the pointer or the keyboard focus. People with low vision use one on its own or together with a screen reader. Operating systems include one, and browsers add page zoom on top.

Magnification changes what a page needs. Text must stay sharp when enlarged, so real text beats text baked into images. Layouts must reflow into a single column instead of forcing sideways scrolling. Related content needs to sit close together, because a person seeing a small window at a time can miss an error message that appears far from the field it describes.

Low vision
Vision that cannot be fully corrected with glasses, so a person needs larger text, more contrast, or magnification.
Reflow
A layout that rearranges into one column when the window is narrow or the page is zoomed, with no sideways scrolling.
Screen reader
Software that reads what is on the screen aloud or sends it to a braille display.
