Description

Description

On iOS when the font size is increased on the device, the UI doesn't scale and the codes are cut off.

If I turn off the large icons in the settings I can at least read the whole current code, but still about 25% of the code is cut off.

Research direction
The issue is that Auth codes are cut off when the iOS device font size is increased. The fix likely involves ensuring the UI widgets respect the device's text scaling accessibility settings. Start by examining the relevant auth screen widget in the Flutter codebase (possibly under `lib/auth/` or similar). Look for usage of `MediaQuery.textScaleFactor` or consider wrapping text in `FittedBox` or `AutoSizeText`. Test on iOS simulator with a larger accessibility font size. Ensure that the layout dynamically adjusts to prevent text truncation.
