Proposal

Please re-state the problem that we are trying to solve in this issue.

he font size (menu text) does not respond to resizing

What is the root cause of that problem?

We need to set the font size via getValueUsingPixelRatio like here

App/src/styles/variables.ts

Lines 53 to 54 in 0e46257

	fontSizeSmall: getValueUsingPixelRatio(11, 17),
	fontSizeExtraSmall: 9,

and in all places where we gave static font size it will not rescale. for instance in initial settings page we have given static font here

App/src/styles/index.ts

Lines 2848 to 2849 in 0e46257

	fontSize: 13,
	...FontUtils.fontFamily.platform.EXP_NEUE,

What changes do you think we should make in order to solve the problem?

We need to set the font size via getValueUsingPixelRatio every where we need

What alternative solutions did you explore? (Optional)
