Can you show us an example of an existing similar product?

there are some apps in android and Itunes, https://encrypted.google.com/#q=magnifying+glass+app but I like more when apps have been made specially for jolla and sailfish :)

I am not sure what you are looking after, but one kind of "magnifying glass" has allready been implemented: when you are typing you can press on the cursor and drag it down to zoom the text which makes moving the cursor easier.

Thank for this trick, I did not know about it and it is nice and cofortable. Anyway what I was asking is for a kind of app I have seen, for instance, in huawei p8ligt that let you use the phone as a magnifying glass on things outside.
