Using the website on an Android phone with Samsung Internet, which updated yesterday. Now there are no options to quote a post, only the 4 options underneath each post. The drop down menu on each post has gone.

Are you sure it's all posts or just those with a quote already used?

Are you logged in to Mumsnet after the update? I just tried this on my Samsung phone using google browser and I had the same as you until I logged in.

I am rather visually impaired so I have enlarged text as in the grab above, so I wonder if that's pushing things out of whack, but it's never been a problem before.

Hi OP

If you make your text smaller, does the button appear?

Thanks @LilyMumsnet yes it does but unfortunately it's hard for me to see if the text is smaller 😔

Yes - also an issue for me on laptop/Chrome - the "3 little dots" that used to have a dropdown menu including "quote" now only has "reply" as an option

Also an issue with page having changed and much less functional than before

Hi again @Jimothy . We are still looking at a fix for this - sorry it's taking a while, but it is on our list, don't worry. In the interim, we know this sounds a bit daft, but if you turn your device to landscape does that enable you to see 'the meatball menu' (the three little dots) and be able to click on it? That might just be a workaround while we find a better solution.

Hi yes it does but it makes the rest of the phone especially keyboard unwieldy
