Dynamic Type support (new feature) is killing me

  I have an iPhone 12 Mini; it’s great for people who don’t feel like keeping a small iPad in their pocket. Unfortunately Pocket Casts has become close to unusable with the latest update, which supports Dynamic Type.

  My eyesight is fine; I keep the text-size slider in the middle. Pocket Casts interprets medium as large print, however. When I go to a podcast I can see at most one full episode title without scrolling; usually it’s just part of an episode title. If a podcast has a long title and I have something playing, I can’t see the newest episode at all.

  I can go to the Settings app and move the slider, but then my messages have small print. I really don’t feel like going back and forth all the time. Please add an option to ignore Dynamic Type. The old text size was just fine.
