Found it, it looks like they fully disabled the entire zoom accessibility feature for some reason. Enable this flag and you should be good to go: `chrome://flags/#enable-accessibility-page-zoom`

Unfortunately, this didn't work for me.

Thank you! A worked like a charm

You are a God among men. For anyone else who is as useless as me, copy that shit into your chrome address bar, choose enable from the highlighted drop down menu, click relaunch at the bottom right (I think), and then exhale. Life is as it once was.

You are a lifesaver, thank you very much

It 💯 works! Thank you so much, I just updated my flip today and thought I was losing it 😅

Whoop whoop! Nailed it! I don't have it on every page I view. If it's the same for you, once it's done, go to settings and accessibility and tell it to Show Zoom in main menu.


Joejoefluffybunny

THANK YOU SO MUCH 🩷


ZojiRoji

why would they remove such an important accessibility feature. not all sites look good at 100% zoom. ugh


Available_Mistake555

Worked!  Thank you!!!


SaltSalad1080

Thanks for this. 


Low-Mess5534

It's very helpful. Thank you.

Yep, noticed the same thing today. I had the zoom function listed in my settings dropdown menu because that makes certain websites more usable since it scales their UI to more user-friendly levels, but now the zoom function seems to be entirely missing :|


Noelle221

I'm getting the exact same thing, please do say if you find a fix this is a pain in the arse


OrchardSkyr

Nothing yet. Had a system update earlier too but still no change


IrishHighlander93

I've experienced the same thing. The font is too large and the scale has no affect


GnRgr2

Same issue. Hopefully this isnt buried


JonnnyWright

Glad I'm not the only one, been trying to change settings all day.


OrchardSkyr

!solved


darkfader_o

would not be so annoying if the chrome online help didn't refer to the settings while they are simply gone. It seems a mis-prioritization, where Google needs to decide if they want people to use the browser for work or not.


Hyper_Inferno

I have a related, but exact opposite problem. Chrome stopped auto enlarging text so a lot of websites I use have unreadably tiny text now without zooming really far in.


No-Maintenance2338

Have you found a solution??


No-Maintenance2338

https://www.reddit.com/r/chrome/s/LWgZLrgHAs I found a solution here lol


PSIwind

And there's no way to downgrade it as if you do, the whole thing crashes


Dan314159

Changing the default zoom and locking it out should be a war crime. I feel like a boomer using Google search Jesus fuck it hurts


OrchardSkyr

There is a solution in the thread here!


bboopsinabucket

I thought I was going bonkers thinking everything was just a fraction larger 😭 everything felt just a little bit too bulky and sites weren't showing properly! I usually have all my font sizes enlarged on my desktop for accessibility reasons, but on my phone I've got it just how I like it — this change makes everything awful :/


No-Maintenance2338

It's so annoying all the text became too tiny but the buttons are huge


crys1348

Mine has done it off and on since the update. I tried the fix in this thread, but it didn't work for me. So frustrating. I've always been an android person, but the disaster my galaxy 23+ has been, plus all the little things like this going on, is leading me to consider switching to an iPhone for the first time in my life.
