You can adjust the font size of the text in Zoom using the hot-keys Ctrl + to increase the size, and Ctrl - to decrease the size, when Zoom is your active window. This will increase or decrease the size of all text elements, including the chat text. The setting is also saved for future Zoom meetings.

An alternative approach is to navigate to Zoom's settings and adjust it there. This can be found by going to Zoom > Settings > Accessibility on the main client window. An option is in this window called Chat Display Size. Per-OS instructions with screenshots can be found here: Changing settings in the desktop client or mobile app

You can change the font size for closed captioning and chat.

  • Closed Captioning: Click and drag the slider to make closed captions smaller or larger.
  • Always show meeting controls: Make the meeting controls visible at all times. If disabled, meeting controls will hide if your mouse pointer is inactive for a few seconds.
  • Chat Display Size: Adjust the font size for in-meeting and IM chats.
  • Screen Reader Alerts: Enable or disable screen reader alerts.

This setting will only affect your local Zoom client.

    This does not work on my macOS system. Neither Ctrl-+, Command-+, Option-+. Seems as if this is missing in macOS.
