User level: Level 1 (14 points)I'm trying to set up a recovery key on an iPhone 17e. Even with the smallest font, the last 4 characters run off the screen. No way am I going to click on continue. The Settings screen will not go to landscape mode even with rotation unlocked. The display won't let me read or scroll to see the whole 28 characters.
Any ideas?

Thx Jim,
I don’t, but you gave me an idea. I have auto Zoom on rather than default Zoom. Temporarily reverting to default allowed the full display. I’ve never had a similar issue where a truncated number wasn’t scrollable but it is solved now.
Thank you,
Aki

Do you have Bold Text on at Settings > Appearance > Bold Text?
