I have data entered in and doing some fake text such as:  
_Our pioneering canine exec has stepped down. In an even more surprising twist, we’ve welcomed a goldfish as our new strategic leader. With unmatched focus and a fluid approach to challenges, we’re navigating towards uncharted waters. Here’s to making a splash! 🐠💧_

However, in the app view it only shows half that. How do I make it where it shows ALL data on that one page? without it being cut off? nor going to another page.

You showed it in a label ? Verify the size of the label and his container.

If this is in one of the default data viewer layouts, you won’t be able to show text beyond a certain point. In that case, you have two options, open a modal when the user clicks on the data viewer entry and have a larger space for text using the label component or you could also create a [custom data viewer](https://docs.thunkable.com/app-design/ui-components/data-components/data-viewers/custom-data-viewer) and within that, use a text input instead of the label. The advantage to the text input, is that you could make it scrollable via toggling the multi-line property.
