Help! My REC button is missing

This started yesterday with this weird formatting. (See screenshot below)

Note: if I pull down the page to refresh it corrects itself. But then when I look at another thread it's gone again. Rinse repeat.

I've logged in and out. I've restarted my tablet, I shut it down completely. No luck.

It's a Samsung Galaxy Tab 6S Lite.

Thank you.

Here's a screenshot.

1. Have you increased the size of your font?

I am visually impaired and must increase the font to read and therefore my screen looks like your screen shot. I have to reduce the font in order the see the rec key. It's a pita but it works.

That is all I have to offer. You may have a different problem, but that is what it looks like to me.

I made the font smaller as you suggested but it didn't change it.

Thank you for the suggestion though. I appreciate it.

It must be something with my tablet as there are no other posts asking about this.

Maybe it'll magically correct itself.

Weird glitch though.

Have a nice weekend

Tried messing with magnification and font size... no luck.

I can Rec replies it's just the OP where the button is gone.

It's a mystery.
