All icons are now smaller and thus more difficult to tap. They are slightly but noticable smaller. Throughout all history of iPhone, the icons have had certain dimensions. Now, Apple for some reason decided to ruin this. Just as everything else, bit by bit. But, does anyone know how to return the normal size, which has been throughout all older iOS-s?

iPhone SE, iOS 14
You must have amazingly sensitive eyes to size differences. The apps were reduced in size by 1/64 of an inch. That's an incredibly small number.
You have two choices however. Forget about it as this is now the new normal for icon sizes and you can't enlarge them by 1/64".
OR, use Zoomed View - Settings > Display and Brightness and scan down to the bottom and change the view to Zoomed from Standard.
Other than that there is nothing you can do about this except get used to a very small difference.
Done
Yeah, how can you not see that change? Lol..... I don't know.....personally, I don't like it. I'd love if they changed it back to the original size, with 1 px larger.

So anyone who can't see this is stupid?
Is that really your contribution to this discussion?

The icons are still smaller after the last update. I thought Apple actually reverted back to the old dimensions, but arrrrrgh, they only fixed some other bug on iPad icons sizes or something. Darn!
I just installed 14.1. Man the size of the icons in the keyboard are all smaller. I definitely don’t like it!!

No, they’re not.
Yes the icons are smaller. Many have commented on it.

And many have measured them and found they are not.
I have iPhone SE 2016 and just downloaded ios14 and yes the icons look much smaller. Is there away to adjust this?
It is obvious. When you are used to those icons and look and feel for years and years in the past (I started with iPhone 4), you get used to these kind of things.
I also do not like the smaller icons, should be adjustable. Apple should customers use things before changing them!
I agree. It’s horrible. I am getting eye strain trying to read and find what I am looking for
They definitely are!!! I have a screen shot of the old screen and took one of the new screen. MUCH smaller.
