    I'd read occasionally that the Z10 and Q10 browsers didn't have text reflow upon zoom capabilities and thought it may have been a particular (earlier) software issue, but it seems a lot of people find it missing.

    (Partially copied from a post I made in another thread)

    What confuses people (I think) is the fact that on other OSs' font-size will be changed with the reflow after zoom in.
    On this OS you have to select a suitable (generally larger than default) font-size initially and settle on one which suits you best for your Web reading and just double tap to zoom.
    P.S. It's far more effective in Landscape mode.
    I hope it works for you!

    Would be nice if it just did it without having to change settings but good find.

    Thank you! It's a pleasure to be of some help.
    I put some demo pics and a slightly more in-depth (I hope) explanation in another thread in order to demonstrate this.
    It depends on how a site is written I believe.

    I've been happy with Reader mode. It displays the main article on the website I'm looking at, and all the extraneous sections are not shown.

    I'm very happy with the Reader myself.
    I'm just praying for a darker background with (possibly colored and editable) light text in the next OS upgrade.

    +1 on the reader mode. It is quick and easy and gets rid of all the irrelevant stuff.

    Good find, although what you are describing is not text reflow, just zoom.

    Text reflow refers to the ability of text to wrap around when you increase text size, so, for example,
    "This is a text reflow example."
    Could become
    "This is a text
    reflow example."
    Automatically when zoomed in. This is to eliminate scrolling left to right.

    Text reflow is definitely not supported in the BB10 browser. Zoom-to-fit, which is what you have confused with text reflow, is activated upon double-tap.

    It does away with the need to scroll from side to side when reading a web page, so I find it very handy.
    Incidentally, I do have to double tap after pinching to zoom.
