In samsung setting there is option to change screen size or display size.

How can change screen size programatically ?

After trying this alternative and this alternative modifying directly cordova's android platform MainActivity.java without success, I discovered here that if you modify the zoom property of html body style, you can counter the zoom that display size applies.

In order to automatically detect the display size zoom applied, I've forked cordova-plugin-screensize into my repo and I've added displaySizeScaleFactor value to the get call, which gives you the factor of scaling that display size setting has applied.

First, add the plugin using:

cordova plugin add git+https://github.com/newage99/cordova-plugin-screensize

And then use this code after deviceready event has fired:

window.plugins.screensize.get(
  function(result) {
    document.body.style.zoom = (
      1.0 / result.displaySizeScaleFactor
    ).toString();
  },
  function() {}
);
