I just upgraded to 13.1 and the size of my icons on my iPad got smaller. Is there any way to change this other than using the zoom feature?


Thanks in advance!

You will find a new option under Settings > Display & Brightness - Home Screen Layout, More and Bigger.

No one here from Apple.

We all are just users here, like you!

Are you sure you are not finding this?

It is in Settings app under Home screen and Dock. You may have to scroll down to find it!

If you are not seeing this, try a simple hard reset of your iPad for the iPad model you own since you haven't posted the model iPad you own.

Apple never removes features once they are put into place.

Apple needs to not make apps in the smaller size on my 10.5 inch iPad Pro the default for how my apps look on my home screens. I need for Apple to leave that alone and go back to the way the apps where before this iPadOS 13 app update. Apple didn't need to make its iPad users choose between More (smaller looking app icons on the screen) and Bigger (normal looking app icons on the screen) from settings > Display & Brightness > HOME SCREEN LAYOUT > More (default, smaller and harder to see app icons) or > Bigger (Normal and easier to see app icons). Apple please only have the option of Bigger (Normal and easier to see app icons) and not make the default be More (smaller and more difficult to see apps at all). This is coming from a low income adult college female diagnosed so far with autism, anxiety disorder and dyspraxia who also has 20/20 vision.

Are you running the latest iPadOS version?

In the Settings app, look for the settings panel labeled Home Screen and Dock.

Tap that Panel and you should see two represntations of your iPad's screen. One with smaller icons and one with larger icons. ( you might have to scroll to see this ).

Tap the screen representation showing the larger icons.
