iOS 12 line spacing/padding increased

Hi Everyone,

I noticed a very odd difference when I updated to iOS 12 Beta on my iPhone X that the line spacings in notifications and vertical spacing between the settings items has increased. This was not the case in iOS 11 and I've even seen videos of folks with iOS 12 not having this issue.

It's like the line height/padding has been increased and it looks quite odd and untidy. I thought the issue might have been with the beta version but even after installing the final release of iOS 12 today, the issue seems to be still there. I'm uploading some screenshots to give a better idea. It has frustrated me quite a bit as I've not been able to find a fix for this glitch. Any help will be much appreciated.

iPhone X, iOS 12, User Interface

Hello.

Remove all the keyboards other than English would fix the problem.

I am facing the same problem but removing the Urdu keyboard didn’t work for me.

I fixed it.
It appears to be a side-effect of adding the "urdu" language for me. Removing urdu fixed the line-height. It's a bug that should be fixed though.

Did you remove the Keyboard or the Language?

Try removing the language from Settings>General>Language and Region. Click Edit, then remove Urdu.

Hi guys, I don't think this is a bug. When they introduced support for urdu nastaleeq typeface some letters were getting cut off and that was making it look bad and unreadable. With the increased spacing, this is not happening anymore. This is actually nice now, though I didn't expect them to increase the line spacing for every language 😁

This is the problem of URDU language. To solve issue follow below steps.

Go to settings->Language and Regions -> Iphone Langue

press edit and remove Urdu.

Dont worry this will not remove urdu font from your phone.

This is a issue, apple may remove this in their next update.

I have this exact problem on an iPhone 7. Would a reset fix this? It's quite annoying. I can't find anything on this anywhere else on the internet either.
