You may have zoom enabled in the accessibility settings. You may want to try turning these settings off.

  1. Locate and tap on Settings > General > Accessibility:
  2. Tap Zoom and turn off using the slider:

Hope that helps!

SOURCE: iphone home screen zoom in

This happens when you accidentally put the iphone in zoom mode, which is one of the "accessibility" features under the "settings" icon. Most likely the user accidentally "double tapped" the screen with three fingers. This is what launches zoom mode. To change the zoom, double tap the screen with three fingers and drag the three fingers down or up the screen. To avoid this recurring, you can go to Settings>General>Accessibility>Zoom. Then set the Zoom feature to "off".

On the Summary tab, click on Configure Universal Access( you need scroll down to get to see it). Then select Neither to disable Zoom function. Hope this will help. Thanks for reading.

Icon very big how can i make it small

First of all try this: Tap the iPhone with three fingers twice in succession. The home screen icons will be magnified to 200 percent. To adjust the zoom level, touch the screen with three fingers then move them up to increase the zoom, and down to lower it. The next time you tap the screen twice with three fingers, the iPhone will automatically return to your custom zoom level.
If it doesn't help, follow the steps below and repeat the above (step 5.)
  1. Tap the "Settings" menu from the iPhone home screen.
  2. Tap "Accessibility."
  3. Tap the word "Off" next to "Zoom" to turn the Zoom feature on.
  4. Return to the iPhone home screen.
  5. Tap the iPhone with three fingers twice in succession. The home screen icons will be magnified to 200 percent. To adjust the zoom level, touch the screen with three fingers then move them up to increase the zoom, and down to lower it. The next time you tap the screen twice with three fingers, the iPhone will automatically return to your custom zoom level.
Let me know if you need further help.
Good Luck.
Thanks for using FixYa.

The iphone is stuck on zoom

Are you seeing large icons on your screen? if yes, then just tap three fingers on your screen at the same time. this would put back your iphone to its normal size. chances were, when you grabbed your iphone from your pocket, you unintentionally grabbed it with your three fingers on the screen, zooming in your screen. So the solution here is to tap three fingers again to zoom out.

Please let me know how this works. Thank you for using FixYa.

Double tap the screen with 3 fingers and it will unzoom. Then to switch the feature off, go to settings, accessability and turn off zoom feature.
Hope this helps and if so please vote.

Iphone screen keeps zooming in

Go to (settings > general > Accessibility > Zoom) and click turn off zoom. Warning: getting around to just do this is a royal pain in the ***. Be patient.

Screen magnified and will not unlock

This might help...


ZoomMany iPhone applications let you zoom in and out specific elements. For example, you can double-tap or use the pinch gesture to expand webpage columns in Safari. Zoom is a special accessibility feature that lets you magnify the entire screen of any application you’re using to help you see what’s on the display.
Turn Zoom on or off: In Settings, choose General > Accessibility > Zoom and tap the Zoom On/Off switch.
NOTE: You cannot use VoiceOver and Zoom at the same time.
Zoom in or out: Double-tap the screen with three fingers. By default, the screen is magnified by 200 percent. If you manually change the magnification (by using the tap-and-drag gesture, described below), iPhone automatically returns to that magnification when you zoom in by double-tapping with three fingers.
Increase magnification: With three fingers, tap and drag toward the top of the screen (to increase magnification) or toward the bottom of the screen (to decrease magnification). The tap-and-drag gesture is similar to a double-tap, except you don’t lift your fingers on the second tap—instead, drag your fingers on the screen. Once you start dragging, you can drag with a single finger.
For best results using three-finger gestures, relax and let your fingers touch the screen naturally.
Move around the screen: When zoomed in, drag or flick the screen with three fingers. Once you start dragging, you can drag with a single finger so that you can see more of the screen. Hold a single finger near the edge of the display to pan to that side of the screen image. Move your finger closer to the edge to pan more quickly. When you open a new screen, Zoom always goes to the top-middle of the screen.
