But, I have accumulated some 800 contacts including historic clients and colleagues from prior law firms, restaurants from when I lived in different cities, old friends I no longer keep in touch with and so on. I only want a relatively few current contacts synced from Outlook to Gmail, my iPhone and iPad – about 250 or so contacts.

In the past iOS gave you a choice of, maybe 6 or 7 font sizes – but, again, the only apps that ever supported that were email and messaging. It now supports the system wide Dynamic Type choice.
