    But all that is too little, too late for the actual connection process.
    I need to be able to *see* the teeny-tiny random ports BEFORE I connect.

    Q: How can I display the teeny-tiny sets of numbers bigger on the phone?
    A: ?

    So many possible answers:


    1. Don't use

    Pair device with pairing code
    Pair new devices using six digit code

    but

    Pair device with QR code
    Pair new devices using QR code scanner

    and a QR-Code reader for your PC


    2. Use the web cam to display the text on the phone screen on your PC

    3. Use an analog or digital magnifier glass

    4. Use the built-in magnifier of your phone

    As for the local zoom in an activity, the problem, for me, is Samsung. Apparently, Samsung won't let me do the simplest of zooms I want to do.

    Samsung an all the other phones support the simplest way of zoom:
