How to make text scale properly on mobile devices in Bubble.io?

  Responsive web design is crucial to ensure that text scales properly on mobile devices. When using Bubble.io, here’s a detailed step-by-step guide to achieve text scaling effectively:   Use Responsive Settings in Bubble Editor:       - Open your Bubble.io application.     - Navigate to the “Responsive” tab on the left sidebar of the Bubble Editor.     - Click on your text element to select it.     - Check the "Make this element fixed-width" box if it’s checked. Uncheck it to allow the width to adjust dynamically.   Adjust Text Size Based on Screen Width:       - Inside the "Responsive" tab, you can set dynamic rules for text size.     - Click on "Add a condition" to create a new condition based on the screen width.     - For instance, set a rule: "When the page width <= 600px, font size = 14px". Adjust these values as needed.     - Click "Save" to apply the new rule.   Use Percentages for Width instead of Pixels:       - Select the text element on your design page.     - In the properties panel, set the width in percentages (e.g., 100%) rather than a fixed pixel value.   Leverage Responsive Containers:       - Group elements inside a Group or Container.     - Set the container to be responsive by adjusting the settings within the responsive tab.     - Ensure the inner text element is set to fit the container properly.   Preview and Adjust Responsiveness:       - Use the "Preview" button to see how your design looks on different devices.     - Adjust any settings if needed to ensure proper scaling of text.   Using CSS for Additional Control (Optional):       - If you require more granular control, you can add custom CSS.     - Go to Settings > SEO/Metatags > Script in the header and add the necessary CSS code.     - For example:         \`\`\`                              \`\`\`       - Replace ".my-text-class" with the class of your text elements.   By following these steps, you can ensure that the text in your Bubble.io application scales properly across different mobile devices, providing a better user experience.
