Is this with the default basemap "Mapbox Streets"? How does it look if you switch to "Mapbox Streets @ 2x"? See Basemaps from the main menu, anything with "@ 2x" should be bigger text. If this is indeed the case and @ 2x is sufficient, I might need to reconsider the default. So far I've just tested with the Jolla phone, which is DPI-wise a borderline case.

And regarding tablets and big screens, some layouts might ill suitable for them. I haven't tested those yet. My Jolla tablet will arrive maybe late October, earliest. After that I might make some changes.

Hi Osmo,

Indeed I was using the default @2x looks better seems jolla uses even bigger.
Can you offer @4x?

Mapbox doesn't offer 4x. Neither do any of the other providers used by Poor. Google does offer 4x and HERE, with a different technical approach, offers four different PPI values, but both of these have unacceptable terms of use.

But setting that default is something I can do, it seems possible in QML using data from Screen.

Brilliant, thank you!

I chose to simply make 2x the default. When there's 4x tiles available I'll look into the QML Screen thing.
