Make Medium easier to read
FontFlex is a Safari extension that changes the font, size, spacing and colors of medium.com, and every other site, on iPhone, iPad and Mac.
Why Medium can be tiring to read
Medium posts are built for long reads, but your eyes may prefer a different typeface, size or color than the one every writer gets.
A good FontFlex setup for Medium
- Your favorite reading serif, such as EB Garamond or Merriweather Pro
- Text size one or two steps larger Free
- Warm background with dark gray text Pro
Only for Medium, if you like
Save these settings as a FontFlex profile and assign it to medium.com. Medium gets its own look while every other site keeps your default. Profiles are free.
New to FontFlex? The setup guide shows how to turn the extension on in Safari. It takes about a minute.
FontFlex is not affiliated with Medium. It changes how pages look on your device only.
The quiet cost of hard-to-read pages
Small, thin type and tight lines make readers work harder. Many give up halfway down the page, and the words were never the problem.
