This notification panel is extremely small. I don't like it. I've been in panel settings, I've looked at display size, heck, I've went into developer settings and changed the minimum width. There is no isolated setting for the width of the notification panel on my tablet, and if there is, it should not be so hidden that I had to make this post. Now, when I opened my tablet to see the software update, I clicked "Go to home screen". Was there a setting there that I needed to turn off? Why are you like this, Samsung??

Edit: yes, I have messaged the developers through the feedback channel. I am awaiting some response right now. It's awful that there doesn't seem to be a setting for this. Thank you for your responses.

Sorry, there is no secret setting to make it bigger.

Yes, it is rather comically small for a tablet, when in portrait mode. When in landscape it is fine, I don't mind it so much.
Giving the Fold and tablets a slab phone size notification panel is just ridiculous. As soon as I restarted my Tab S10+ and saw what I saw, I immediately went to the support section of my tablet and sent feedback with a request to figure out a way. To make it bigger.

It looks like they designed the notification area for the tablets to open in popup view.  I suspect they thought it might be convenient so that you can view your notifications without interrupting what you were working on.  The only way to register your dissatisfaction and to possibly have it changed would be to send feedback to the developers. https://us.community.samsung.com/t5/Tips-Tricks/How-to-Send-Feedback/ba-p/3001692

Yes, I agree it is terribly small, specifically on a tablet which I use more than my phone at times. Making a setting makes sense and let the user decide.
