Homescreen icons enlarged after updating to iOS26

After updating to iOS26 the homescreen icons are enlarged like the zoom has been activated, but checking the settings everything is set to default. I checked both the Screen and Accessibilty settings, also changing the font size effect everything in the system but the icons.

IpadOS 26 homescreen feels zoomed in I just downloaded ipadOS26 on my M2 ipad air 11”. Wow its so beautiful. But i noticed a change that i dont think i like that much. The homescreen feels zoomed. The app icons are way bigger than before and the top bar that shows the time also feels that the font is too big. Is it a bug or is it how its supposed to be. I find it a little annoying. I found in settings on zoom options theres an option for “more space” but thats not what im looking for, it makes everything too small. The rest of the elements scale nicely on the default, its just these 2 things that i have noticed at the moment.
