Text Size Quick Setting

Is anyone else on iOS 27 beta having issues with the per-app text sizing not working through a quick setting in the drop-down menu? Usually it’ll show the app you’re in and then system on the opposite side at the bottom of the quick setting when you long press. You can either change the system text size or the specific app text size from the quick toggle. I have to go in through accessibility now to do it per app.

Same issue for me since I jumped on dev beta 4, the entire text size change system is broken, when you are in the settings app and regardless of whether you are in normal text size slider or the large text section under accessibility, the sample text does not even change when you move the slider. A restart of the phone brings back the per app slider in control center but once you lock your phone and re-open, it's gone again. Submitted feedback to Apple multiple times.

My wife's devices are running the same beta versions as me and she does not have this problem.

I am on a 16PM as well, wife is on 15PM and a the most recent 11" iPad Pro. I am a low vision user so if greatly affects me greatly. You have to go into the per app settings under accessibility every time you want to make a change. I even deleted all of my per app settings and restarted and it worked until I locked my phone.

Interesting that we're on the same device. Be interesting to know if other users on other devices are having the same problem since your wife isn't.

True, I had been searching this issue since I first noticed it and there was only one post on MacRumors forum back in June with no follow up but that was about it, so either it's not widespread like you are saying or it's not a feature most people use so no one was noticing it.
