You may have noticed in iOS 13 and iPadOS that double tap to zoom in Safari no longer works. This feature let you double tap on the screen to zoom into a webpage to make it easier to read.
Double Tap Zoom
Instead of double tapping you’ll have to pinch and un-pinch to zoom in and out. While it’s not a huge change, it was a feature that made using your iPhone with one hand easier. So far it appears to be only removed in Safari. Double tap to zoom works in Maps and Photos.
