RE: Enabling Zoom on Mobile Devices

Katie said: “Actually on my Android phone, Samsung Note 2,  without setting any special feature all three browser I use (the default browser, Chrome and Firefox) zooms in and out just fine.”

AC: Could you try this page:

I’ve set that up with:
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, user-scalable=0, maximum-scale=1">

And no browser detection.

On iOS and Chrome/Android (4.3) you cannot zoom in by default.

Chrome has accessibility settings which do allow you to over-ride the lack of scaling, and also increase the text size. iOS doesn’t.
