For that you need to use screen magnification.

Triple tap with three fingers to zoom in and zoom out. While you're zoomed, drag with three fingers to pan the view.

But I also kinda feel like just saying that says a lot about Apple's UX these days, especially in the accessibility department. Because those swipe gestures can be confusing and require too much manual dexterity for many people who need a feature like screen magnification.



> Triple tap with three fingers

Honestly, that’s a non-starter.


Re the other reply here, what's missing is discoverability -- at minimum a little circled letter "i" in the corner that would pop up a big sketch of the required gesture.


Discoverability is important, but elderly people are unlikely to be able to reliably (or at all) triple-tap with three fingers, regardless of discoverability. Many already have problems with double-pressing buttons (like for Apple Pay).
