How can I stretch dock length?

I updated and my dock shrunk. My old dock on iPad 12.9 was bigger with more space between icons. How can I stretch dock length?

iPad Pro Wi-Fi, iOS 11.0.2

Hi Connie


Not sure you can change the size of the icons directly, but I did two things to get my screen how I wanted it.


I turned off "Show suggested and recent apps" which is an option in "Settings>General>Multitasking and Dock" This stops the dock changing size randomly.


I also removed the apps I did not need which makes the icons bigger. It odes not however change the space between the apps.
