Any way to view GIA/AGS inscription without a loupe?

My cellphone's 8x digital zoom is not gonna cut it...

I guess I could go to a brick and mortar store?

Unlikely. You could you a camera lenses but trying to get the focus to hit the inscription would probably require macro and manual focus

Microscope. Ask a jeweler if he could confo the inscription on a stone with the report (presuming you have a report). They usually will do this for free (if the store isn't busy). Maybe call first.

No way in Hell!
Mostly because your cellphone's sensor is too small ... and your telephone's optics cannot magnify enough.

It's a telephone.
Use it to make telephone calls.

You can order a 30x loupe on amazon for $10.
