[SOLVED] Scaling apps to 4k resolution

I have a fresh Arch install. The GPU driver is the prop nvidia driver (GPU 1050 ti). I am running Xorg, dwm as WM and xterm. No apps is being scaled by default so I am following what the wike says (HiDPI section)

I have put

export QT_AUTO_SCREEN_SCALE_FACTOR=1
export GDK_SCALE=2

in my .zshrc file but nothing happens Chrome and Firefox are almost unreadable (text too tiny). If that is not the file, Where should I put those scaling lines?

I add them to .bashrc and now chromium and Firefox are escalated as the should.
