Screen locked in magnified settings, can't log in

My elderly mother has somehow put her phone into such a large magnification that we cannot maneuver the screen to access the number keys to log her in and correct the sizing. I've tried rebooting several times, but it takes me back to the log in screen where we can only see 1 button and not move to access the others.


What can I do to resolve this?

From If your Home screen icons are magnified on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support :If you can't access Settings because your Home screen icons are magnified, double tap with three fingers on the display to zoom out.
