Finally, visible icons on the iPad

Tired of the thin icons on your iPad after iOS 7? I discovered if you go to settings/general/accessibility and select Bold Text, the icons will be bold too!

It is not enough that the user can see the icons, he should be able to do so without strain or irritation, even if he doesn't have eagle eyes. 
In art, form is king. In design, form has to follow function. 


Whoever designed these had good vision.
After setting Bold Text: ah, much better.
