Tap the iPhone with three fingers twice in succession. The home screen icons will be magnified to 200 percent.

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.

If your phone is an iPhone 3GS, head over to to Settings icon then tap on General Accessibility and turn the zoom feature off.

You must have zoomed-in the screen accidentally. It's easy to zoom-out, just double-tap anywhere on the screen using 3 of your fingers (simultaneously) and everything will go back to normal.

And in case you want to zoom-in again, just do the same thing.

Maybe, you accidentally zoomed in the screen of your iPhone, to zoom out, use three of your fingers to double-tap the screen simultaneously. Do the same thing to zoom back in.

Double tap the screen with 3 fingers to undo. Then to turn the feature off, go to settings then accessability and turn "zoom" feature to off.

Tap on the screen two times, with three fingers. That should make it zoom back out to normal.

To zoom out, DOUBLE-TAP the home screen with THREE fingers.

Your screen became zoomed in because an "Accessiblity" zoom feature was activated, perhaps accidentally.
Turn Zoom on or off:
In Settings, choose General > Accessibility > Zoom and tap the Zoom On/Off switch.
Detailed info here at Apple's website: http://www.apple.com/iphone/how-to/index.html#accessibility.zoom

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".
