look closer in Photos or expand webpage columns in Safari. There’s also a general Zoom feature
that lets you magnify the screen no matter what you’re doing. You can zoom the entire screen
(Full Screen Zoom) or zoom part of the screen in a resizable window and leave the rest of the
screen unmagnied (Window Zoom). And, you can use Zoom together with VoiceOver.

slider in the zoom controls that appear. To limit the maximum magnication, go to Settings >
General > Accessibility > Zoom > Maximum Zoom Level.
