enlarged icons

[djkemp]

My ipad froze and in the process of trying to shutdown, my icons enlarged and I can't get them back to normal.

Are you jail broken?

You might have accidentally activated the Zoom feature.

First, to get the iPad to go back to normal, double tap the screen with three fingers.

If you want to make sure it doesn't happen again - go to Settings > General > Accessibility. Find "Zoom" and turn it off.

If that didn't fix it, let us know.
