My iphone 7 will suddenly have huge apps displayed on screen. Why do the apps suddenly increase in size? Thanks!

Hello Sunswept4425,

Thank you for posting in the Apple Support Communities. We understand that apps appear larger than expected on your iPhone 7, and we'd like to look into this with you.

For this concern, let's be sure Zoom is disabled in Settings > Accessibility > Zoom. When Zoom is enabled, apps may appear larger within the Zoom window.

Zoom in on the iPhone screen

Also, check to see if those are actually widgets. Widgets appear larger than other apps on the Home Screen. However, you can customize or remove widgets according to your taste. Here's how:

Use widgets on your iPhone and iPod touch

We hope this information is useful. Kind regards.
