Update made my iPad screen smaller how do I fit the Home Screen?

LITERALLY, my ipad screen SHRUNK like 30% after you required update! I’m already 68 yo and DO NOT appreciate it! This is irresponsible SW development! 😡

For the two who "have no clue", thanks to both Captains Obvious. We all know the PHYSICAL screen can't shrink. It's the displays on the screen that are smaller and all out of whack.

I came here for answers only to see a petty argument. Like you can't figure out it's the display that's a,Lee and actually think people believe the physical screen just magically shrunk. Are y'all on here to troll? You have some big numbers for being so clueless.

Is there anyone who actually can answer this question? At this point, I guess I'll be calling tech support tomorrow to find out. I have a feeling it'll be "sorry, nothing we can do" and I'll just have to adjust myself to it. It's not a life altering issue but it's a pretty annoying inconvenience that I'm not enjoying.

I agree. Just updated and everything tiny. This terrible. Can we go back to the old one? I can’t see well and this just truly an AWFUL design change. Widget in the home screen, no ty. My instagram is tiny. I can barely see a thing. How do I make everything larger?

The physical size of your iPad - and its screen - is unchanged.

Please describe the problem. When your issue is understood by others, maybe someone can offer some help or advice.

Since this post was originally posted on Oct 18 and it is, now, Dec 3, this smaller screen issue was NOT well known then.

Since, then, there have been many more postings about the actual screen UI being smaller and more compacted in iPadOS 15.

Unfortunately, to date, there has been NO/ZERO change to this from Apple and, currently, there is nothing to br done about this issue.

Currently, it is what it is. There is nothing, currently, that can be done.

I suggest sending unacknowledged feedback to Apple at their feedback website location below.

Me too. This is horrible. Who would want everything smaller ?

The physical size of your screen cannot change; a 10” screen before an update is still a 10” screen after an update. However, items displayed on the screen (such as icons and text) might change their relative size or appearance.

Please try to tell us precisely what, on the screen, is causing you difficulties. With the benefit of more and information, we may be able to help…

I was merely attempting to extract, from you, usable information with which understand the nature of your difficulty.

Your own issue may not necessarily relate to the problem experienced by the original poster. Rather than hijack this thread, I recommend that you start you own post - and describe your problem. Better still, to save you articulating the issue, attach a screenshot to your so that contributors can see the problem - and offer appropriate advice.

I look forward to seeing appearance of your own post - and will again attempt to provide help.

I have NO clue what you are complaining about.

The diplay size of the screen never changes.

If you are referring to items that are displayed on the screen then that is different.

There maybe nothing to be done about that.

Excuse us, obviously it’s not the “physical” screen size but rather the “displayed” one that SHRUNK 30%. That’s fine but I rather have a full size DISPLAY. This is a fact, not a rant, BTW.

The latest iPad update reduced the size of the DISPLAY screen. Apple needs to remove the bloody frame that has shrunk the size of the display screen. Which genius came up with this idea?

Okay, you have no clue. I understand.
