Have you set AutoScaleAll in the Designer ?
You could play with the AutoScaleRatio to adjust the layout to fit better your needs, and also use Anchors.
Maybe you could have a look at the B4X Visual Designer booklet.

I used AutoScaleAll and Anchors in the designer, the views fit fine but not the fonts.
I already read the document but I'm going to read it again to see if it explains how to autoscale the fonts.
Thank you.

I have had complaints from users in the past about text/lables unintentionally wrapping and spoiling the layout.

The advice above is sound. However you have no control over the user that overrides the default font settings because the text is too small for their vision. Making an app accessible to visually impaired users is not always at the top of every developer's priorities.

The users of the application do not have visual problems, what happens is that the application loses harmony when used on devices with larger screens since a lot of empty space is seen by having smaller fonts than what is seen on my own device in which everything looks more uniform.
Thanks

Can you show screenshots or post a small project with the layout so we can look at it.
