The Per-App Settings introduced in iOS 15 allow users to customize display and text settings for specific apps only.
iOS allows users to customize display and text settings on their iPhone and iPad. However problem with this feature was that whenever you changed these settings, they would apply to all parts of iOS and all installed apps.
Starting iOS 15 and iPadOS 15 Apple has finally made it possible for users to customize display and text settings for specific apps of their choice only. This means you can change these settings on Per-App basis, and changes you make will no longer apply to all apps.
With the new feature iOS users can customize display and text settings for individual apps while keeping system settings and settings for rest of the apps as default. System settings can still be changed from Display & Brightness section of the Settings app.
With the Per-App settings you can customize an app’s display and text size, make text bold, increase or decrease font size, increase contrast, add color filters, invert colors and more for only the app you want.
So if you like you can only change the settings mention above for Twitter and Mail app only, while keeping rest of the apps as default. This is a great iOS 15 feature that will definitely make user’s life easy.
