SQUEEZED SCREEN DISPLAY

Hello, I am currently using iphone 13 pro max. Last time, my screen display suddenly looked narrow. It’s like all texts and icons are squeezed on my screen. It looks very unusual. When I updated the system, it went back to its original display. However, the screen display went to a narrower look again. That’s when I updated to ios 16 to fix the issue. Turns out, it still looks squeezed. I’m having a hard time to even type because all letter, icons and everything in general looks narrow. Can anyone help me fix this? There’s no troubleshooting help I could get from google or youtube.

Hello nicsrmlt,


Thank you for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.


Display zoom may have been disabled. These steps can help you enable it again:


"Magnify the iPhone screen with Display Zoom

You can see larger onscreen controls on an iPhone with Display Zoom.


  1. Go to Settings  > Display & Brightness > Display Zoom.
  2. Select Larger Text to make all the text on iPhone larger.
  3. Tap Done, then tap Use Zoomed."


More details can be found here: Magnify the iPhone screen with Display Zoom


If the issue persists, can you provide a few more details? Do you notice this with specific apps?


Cheers!
