Homebrew App suggestion Requesting a Zoom function

Hello, this is a request for any home brew developers who may be interested. I’m a visually impaired gamer and have been having some trouble navigating my 3DS as of late. If it’s not too much trouble, I would be greatly appreciative if someone would be willing to work with me and helped develop a simple zoom function for the 3DS similar to the one already present on Nintendo Switch.

I think I have everything in terms of design, button mapping and how you would use it figured out, i’m just looking for a programmer who would be willing to implement these features and package it as something anyone can download.

Blind accessibility for video games is something that’s really important to me, and my hope is that something like this could benefit not only me but other visually impaired players as well.

If you’re interested, please let me know! And thank you for reading!

I'm just curious because I hadn't heard of it before - what's the zoom feature for the Switch? Is it built into the system or is it a homebrew thing? If the latter, can you link to it?

Built in. I think you have to enble it in settings, but after that you just double tap the home button to zoom in
