Font size and typeface controls for answer text
Category: Feature request Priority: P3 Area: UI (app) Reports: 2 threads Status: Open
Summary
Two Arabic-speaking users independently ask for text-display settings in the app. Mahmood Muslem finds the current font size large for himself but notes weak-sighted users may find it small, and proposes a three-level font-size setting (small, medium, large). Abass Ktab asks to make the text rendering "more professional," clarifying he wants the ability to change the font type as well as enlarge/shrink the text. Both threads carry additional requests from the same users: Mahmood also asks for select/copy of message text, export of conversations to Word/PDF with Arabic formatting preserved, and citations of classical (heritage) quotes with volume, page and publisher; Abass also asks for a per-project custom-instructions feature like Gemini gems. Abdellatif has already committed in-thread to the three-level font setting, richer citations, export, and the font type/size controls.

19ff871d0f8c8239 - Abdellatif replied: yes (twice; promised the 3-level font option and richer citations)
Sent a thank-you plus a list of suggestions: select/copy of message text, export of a whole conversation or part of it to Word or PDF preserving Arabic formatting/headings/citations, font size control, Islamic image generation, sourcing heritage quotes, and translating English texts/books. When asked whether the current font is small or large, he answered with a concrete three-level proposal.
Original request:
- إضافة إمكانية تحديد نص الرسائل ونسخه، وتصدير المحادثة كاملة أو جزء منها في ملف Word أو PDF، مع المحافظة على تنسيق العربية والعناوين والاستشهادات.
- إمكانية التحكم في حجم الخط.
- إمكانية جعل النقولات من التراث موثقة بالجزء والصفحة.
— Add the ability to select and copy message text, and to export the whole conversation or part of it to a Word or PDF file, while preserving Arabic formatting, headings and citations. — The ability to control the font size. — The ability to have quotations from heritage works documented with the volume and page.
Follow-up (2026-08-17) specifying the font levels and the citation format:
- أرى حجم الخط حاليا كبيرا، والبعض ممن نظره ضعيف قد يراه صغيرا، اقترح جعل خيار ضبط الخط ٣ مستويات (صغير، متوسط، كبير).
- أعني يكون النص الذي ينقله المحرك موثقا بجزء الكتاب إن كان الكتاب من عدة أجزاء والصفحة واسم الجهة التي طبعت الكتاب، إن أمكن حتى يسهل الرجوع إليه.
— I find the current font size large, while some with weak eyesight may find it small; I suggest making the font adjustment option 3 levels (small, medium, large). — I mean that the text the engine quotes should be documented with the book's volume (if the book has several volumes), the page, and the name of the publisher, if possible, so it is easy to refer back to it.

Praised the app, then asked to "develop the texts and make them more professional." When Abdellatif asked what that means, he clarified he wants font type and size controls:
يعني إمكانية تغيير نوع الخط تكبير وتصغير الخط وهكذا وفقكم الله
Meaning the ability to change the font type, enlarge and shrink the font, and so on — may Allah grant you success.
In the same thread he also requested per-project custom instructions like Gemini gems (e.g. a fiqh-preferences project with its own instructions instead of one global custom instruction):
ياريت يكون فيه خاصية المشروعات مثل gems في gemini لتكون هناك تعليمات مخصصة لكل مشروع وليس تعليمات مخصصة واحدة لكل التطبيق
I wish there were a projects feature like gems in Gemini, so there are custom instructions for each project rather than one custom instruction for the whole app.
مثلاً مشروع الاختيارات الفقهية اعطيها تعليمات مخصصة مختلفة عن باقي المشاريع وهكذا
For example, a "fiqh choices" project — I give it custom instructions different from the rest of the projects, and so on.
Details / repro
- Mahmood's data point on the current default: it reads as large to him, yet may be small for weak-sighted users — a single fixed size cannot serve both, hence the 3-level (small/medium/large) proposal.
- Export requirement is specific: Word or PDF, whole conversation or a selection, preserving Arabic formatting, headings and citations.
- Citation requirement is specific: volume (for multi-volume works), page number, and publisher name.
- Abdellatif asked Abass for a screenshot of Gemini gems; Abass answered with the fiqh-project example but no screenshot was captured in the thread.
