I know there’s a way to highlight text and make it bigger but I’m clueless 
Can anyone explain it to me with screenshots?

Sure, it’s super easy!
You use the “mark” code. It’ll look like this when you type it: <mark>text goes here</mark> which will turn into this → text goes here

I don’t understand lol. I need written and visual instructions. I have some cognitive issues

That’s okay!
So, the code part is what makes the text highlight. It is the <mark> and </mark> part of what you write. The text you want to be highlighted gets written between those two codes like books between bookends.
So then this…
becomes this
Does that help?

To make text bigger type the hashtag (#) then a space and the word - the text in the grey block shows what to type.
Biggest
# Biggest

## Bigger

Technically this makes them “headings.”
Like, you know how in Word or Google Docs, you can select text and make it Heading 1, Heading 2, Heading 3, etc., where 1 is the biggest and they get smaller from there? Same deal. One hash symbol is Heading 1, and so on. 
So don’t start using it to yell every sentence at the top of your lungs, @Sivonnah, if you don’t mind. 
I joke. But yeah, just adding that to give some insight on how they can be used.

@MeganB my tablet doesn’t have the symbol before and after mark!

Victory! Nicely done, Sivonnah! 
Uh-oh! That does make it difficult. Is there perhaps a symbol directory button somewhere on the keyboard? Sometimes, to save space, devices will hide all of the extra symbols in another sub-keyboard. It could be worth searching around for 
Alternatively, I suppose you could copy and paste the symbols ( < and > ) when you wanted to use them? I have to do that for en and em dashes (which means that I usually just use a little hyphen instead 
)

As @BryWisteria suggested, I just copied @MeganB code! I saved it in my notes app so I have it!
Yay! Look at me learn stuff!

That’s usually the case. What you’re looking for, @Sivonnah, is something like this when you’re already on the symbols screen:
Tapping it should reveal even more symbols:
Keyboards are slightly different between phones, but that’s generally the idea. Just something to look for in case the copy pasting becomes tedious.
