I just switched from iOS to Android, mostly for the screen size. I miss the READER ability that Safari had on the iphone. I was happy to learn that it was now built into Firefox for Android. But it is too small to use easily. When I try to select the icon I usually miss and trigger something else.

Is there a way to make the icon larger or put it somewhere else, or maybe program a swipe gesture to activate the reader function?

Hi:

As of Firefox 20, it is possible to do some Firefox start screen (home page) customization.

You can: pin a site, remove a site by unpinning it and edit a pinned site's url.

Please read the following Knowledge Base Article for complete information and directions:

Pin Sites on the Firefox for Android start screen

Hope that helps!

I don't see how pinning a site has anything to do with the size of the reader icon. The second link you posted does talk bout the reader icon but does not provide a solution to the size problem.

I think I understand the disconnect in your answers.... You think I am posting about the desktop version of Firefox. I am not. I am trying to figure out how to change the Reader icon size for Firefox on Android on a mobile phone.

We know that the button is hard to trigger. We have fixed this in Firefox 23. You will be able to download Firefox 23 in about 12 weeks.

Ok... I'm glad to hear the problem has been acknowledged. Thanks.
