Icons got smaller in iOS 14, how to return them to normal size?

Question

Throughout all history of iOS, the icons have had certain dimensions. Now, Apple for some reason decided to ruin this and made them smaller a little bit. They ruinded this, just as everything else, bit by bit. But, does anyone know how to return the icons to their original (pre - iOS 14)normal size, which has been throughout all older iOS-s?

To see this, open both of these images each in a new tab and click between them couple of times. You will see how the icons change size significantly.....I really would love to be able to go back to ios 13.....

Answer 1

I honestly don't see something blatantly different, but if you feel bad about it I suggest you tell Apple directly through this link

Besides that there is no other options in display to change the icon size it's either the "default" or "big".

Answer 2

The icon size has definitely changed in iOS 14, at least for models with 4.7" displays. They're 8 pixels smaller, from 122x122 to 114x114, and the space between them is narrower, leaving an excess of unused space to simply make the targets closer and smaller. I have checked this on a 7 and a 2020 SE, both show the same before and after. I'd like to think that there was either an internal, functional reason for this, or it was an accident that they'll correct, and not a designer's idea of something prettier. Here's the before and after shown in a group, (of some obsolete apps):
