I have used 5", 7", and 10" inch tablts and the font sizes were the same on all of them.

I think we should use bigger screens for bigger phonts, espiecely when it comes to lines like "updated x minutes ago". This one remains too small.

My main motivation is this: I would like to put a tablet on the living room to always see the values and so this value stays too small.

Reading through docs it seems that google is pointing towords creating multiple xml files:

res/layout/main_activity.xml # For handsets (smaller than 600dp available width)
res/layout-sw600dp/main_activity.xml # For 7” tablets (600dp wide and bigger)
res/layout-sw720dp/main_activity.xml # For 10” tablets (720dp wide and bigger)

see http://developer.android.com/guide/practices/screens_support.html

I guess that this works and is simple, but will require more work when updating the different activities.

Should I prepare a fix?

@tzachi-dar Thanks, please do! Submit a PR when you have tested. I am not sure you have to change the activities but just create the mulitple xml, but not entirely sure.
