When I'm using Safari on my iPhone 6 Plus, I often pinch to zoom in on text I can't quite read. Why can't I do this on my IPP? Is there a setting somewhere I need to turn on?
Got a tip for us?

Why can't I pinch to zoom in Safari?

There should be no reason why you can't on the iPP unless you're on a specific site that has it disabled.
Perhaps you're on a mobile site? Try long-pressing the refresh button and selecting "Request Desktop Site." Can you pinch and zoom then?
A couple of years ago someone here posted a Safari "bookmarklet" solution which would override a site-specific disabling of the pinch-to-zoom function. Does anyone have a link to this (or maybe a suggestion for another iOS focused forum where one could post this question) ? Thanks to all.
