Photoshop on iPad shows a compressed/thin top toolbar when Display Zoom is set to Default. The Home button, Settings button, and upper toolbar area become smaller than normal.

When I change iPad Display Zoom to “More Space”, the toolbar becomes normal again.

I already tried:

- Reinstalling Photoshop
- Reset All Settings on iPad
- Force closing the app
- Checking Stage Manager
- Testing other Adobe apps like Adobe Fresco (which looks normal)

The issue only happens in Photoshop on Default display mode.

Screenshots and support logs attached.

That’s how Display Zoom is supposed to work on an iPad:

You might ask in the Apple Community:

I understand that this may be related to how Display Zoom works on iPad. However, what I mean is that when Display Zoom is set to “Default”, the Photoshop toolbar appears compressed and the Share button moves out of the toolbar area.

When Display Zoom is changed to “More Space”, the toolbar layout becomes completely normal again.

I just want to confirm whether this behavior in Default mode is expected permanently, or if it may be improved/fixed in a future Photoshop update.

Thanks for clarifying. You posted to Bugs, so the Photoshop team will see it and others may chime in.
