I spoke to my friend this afternoon who couldn't join due to this issue. she said that while the ios setting works, it would be more assuring to have an in app setting to show it's being considered and to offer a feeling of safety. If possible it could just be presented as an option in the client that is automatically enabled according to the ios setting.
Discussion
On Damus testflight I can access the disable animations toggle in settings. Let us know how this works for you and your friend.
Thank you to #[6] for coding this up in ⚡️ speed 🙏
How useful is a font size option setting?

I accidentally added the wrong link above.
Here is the font size setting user story link: https://github.com/damus-io/damus/issues/83#issuecomment-1427382306
Any accessibility device setting that can be mirrored as an in app setting is useful 💜 Definitely appreciate you taking an actionable interest in this.
I increased the device font to see what would happen in Damus right now, and while the majority of text naturally increased - as I’m typing, this text is standard font. Same w if I go to make a new note; defaults to standard size as I type it. Full in app option would to solve for this in clients.
🙏 I’m always looking for “customers” and their pain points. Also my eyes are appreciating larger font size as well 😀.
Thanks for going in and doing the in app testing of iOS font size change. I’ll add to the ticket.
Your comment is aligned with that of #[7] from a few weeks back:
Changing font size in system wide settings, makes UI janky. On changing OS system wide settings affecting Damus font size:
"It does, but it changes the font size for my whole system. I’ll squint for now 🤙"
#[7] has a fix for dynamic font size pending the next Damus Testflight release
