I gotta complain about this again: with this new DU I can spend 15 minutes trying to make a comment on my iPhone. [View all]

The windows won’t fit all my text; or, I can’t get my cursor to the right spot to make a correction; or, I can’t reach the end of my text to add or make corrections because it’s not visible. No matter how I try to enlarge or reduce my window, if I try to tap on the window to put my cursor someplace the window jumps all over the damn place and I can’t place the cursor. I don’t remember it being this frustrating or difficult before, and it’s not due to any reduction in my abilities or error-prone phone issues. The screen – jumping happens more often when I hold the phone in landscape; the running out of space, especially on the header, happens more often when I hold it in portrait mode.

I use Safari on my iPhone for DU MOMFUDSKI Feb 2024 #4
Hi, thanks for your reply. Yes, I use Safari, and I've got an iPhone 14 Pro Max, so it's a recent high-end phone. NBachers Feb 2024 #9

I've used Android phones since the early 2000's, and switched to Apple only recently. My Apple phone is miles more NBachers Feb 2024 #10
I'm sorry you can't take a joke. My reply was neither sneering nor contemptuous. I hope you have a better day tomorrow. Wonder Why Feb 2024 #13
