Screen size when opening Amazon webpage

HERE ARE THE STEPS I TOOK THAT FINALLY FIXED AMAZONS WEBSITE FROM SHRINKING ON MY iPAD MINI 6 IN SAFARI

1.) Open the Safari App on your iPad click the search field at the top of the page and go to AMAZON WEBSITE

2.) Once on amazon.com click the double AA button to the left of the search field as outlined in RED in the reference photo below. This will activate a drop down menu.

3.). In the drop down menu click the smaller A button to the left as outlined in RED in the reference photo. The YELLOW circle is indicating the page zoom level.

4.) Next click on the refresh button to the right of the search field as outlined in RED in the reference photo. Once the webpage is refreshed amazon.com should fill to the width of your screen. This set’s the page zoom for this individual webpage, while not affecting the rest of the website’s you visit. To confirm this setting proceed to the next step.

5.) Close out of the Safari App and open the Settings App and scroll down on the left hand menu until you see Safari and click on it. This will open Safaris menu options to the right. Now scroll down until you see the Page Zoom option and click it. You will now see the label PAGE ZOOM ON set to 85% for amazon.com and OTHER WEBSITES set to 100%

I hope this has helped anyone that has had this happen on their iPad when visiting AMAZON’s website.

Yeah, this problem has to be addressed by Amazon. It’s not going to change by doing anything to your settings, at least not permanently. It’s all in the way each product is presented. If there’s a big graphic layout below the initial description the page is resized by the Amazon page. I just pinch and zoom as I go. It’s irritating but, it doesn’t look like Amazon is going to address it anytime soon.

I tried something that seems to be working. On the Amazon site in Safari, on my iPad Pro, I tapped on the aA and in the drop down box I tapped on “Request Mobile Website”. It suddenly looked a little different and after viewing many items, it hasn’t been shrinking the page! I hope this helps everyone!

Had same problem this fix seemed to work 4me. On iPad: settings, safari, settings for website, page zoom 115%. Good luck, hope works 4u. :) if yes (or no) please reply.

Delete the entry in settings >> safari >> page zoom for Amazon that is present by default and restart the browser. That fixed it for me.

These fixes seem very YMMV but for what it’s worth I’m having success by tapping the AA in the address box while on Amazon’s site, choosing website settings, and turning on “Use Reader Automatically”. It gives the normal full screen on my mini 6 in Safari, not a Reader page. Good luck!

This fix was for using the amazon website thru safari on my iPad. Mine started doing the same thing….opening and being super small that I couldn’t read it without using my fingers to zoom it in. I found out there is a setting in safari for specific web pages. I have no idea why or how this setting got changed to 50%, but I changed it back to 100% and it’s fixed. See screenshots for more.

I went to the three dots on upper right of Chrome, then selected settings by scrolling left on upper most blue icons. Scrolled up (down) to bottom to “content settings”. Finally under “content settings” my “default size view” was set to “mobile”, changed to “Desktop”, see if that helps or works.

After closing the Safari tab then opening a new one and going to Amazon.com everything is too big at 115% so I set it to 100% and refresh. That works for a few product pages then shrinkage starts. Bump back to 115% and refresh. It seems to continue proper page scaling for as long as I’m browsing Amazon.com. But if I close the tab or leave Amazon.com I have to go through all of that again.

I’m not hopeful that anything will improve beyond this.

This problem has nothing to do with Apple. This is an Amazon issue that manifests, both, when using the browser and their web-based app. The source of the problem is Amazon’s continued a persistent use of fixed-size banner ads on many of their pages that fail to adapt to the navigating device in question (iPad).

ok from what i can tell it is because some graphics on some sellers sights somewhere on the listing go outside the area of the sellers page.. so if you scroll down in the app you wiull see that some graphic is too big and the page is fitting that graphic to the page and that shrinks the other part down. i would guess you could only zoom in on these pages because amazon and apple cant know whcich pages are like this. IMO

Using I-Pad

I was not using the Amazon App but had website on Home Screen.

DL the Amazon App

Used the App and it started doing it.

Went to Amazon on Home Screen, started doing it again

Deleted the App

Deleted history in Safari

Forced a restart

Went back to Home Screen and accessed Amazon

So far, I have gone to 20 different items and it has not done it

Not certain if it will continue to stay normal

If it continues again, I am not certain if I will continue to stay normal😂

Screen size remaining at 100% but will certainly try your suggestion of 115% if it starts up again!

Thanks!
