Hello,
I currently use an iPhone SE and sometimes I have trouble reading the small print.  Bifocals won't help because I still need distance vision.   I'm an older pilot and was wondering if many with failiing eyesight use iPads in order to see the screen better.
And which iPad?

Define older,   I usually fly with iPhone 12 Pro Max or iPad Pro. But I find the iPad gets a bit heavy.

I swapped to contact lens (the daily ones) and they have been great.

I am using a Galaxy tab for my setup because I definitely wanted a bigger screen.

Thanks, do you use an adapter for the pad to fit in the remote control?

What's the name of this one?

It’s called flight deck from Polar Pro. It has and adapter for regular tablets but also connects directly to Crystal Sky. It’s really nice and super well built.
