FULL-SCREEN AD ISSUES ON SCM (Mobile Phones)

Thanks to HIB for pointing out the ongoing problem with ads taking over the entire screen on iPhone and Android browsers. I know this has been frustrating, and I'm still working on it.

In the meantime, Rad Cabin reminded me that several users have fixed it by turning on "Desktop Mode" in their phone's browser (Chrome on Android, Safari on iPhone). I posted a quick how-to earlier this year, and I'm sharing it again for anyone who hasn't tried it yet. It only takes a few seconds:

If you've tried it and you're still having trouble, let me know. Your feedback helps me track down the problem.

Looking at it from another device its an amazon ad, too big to tell on the phone, but it was difficult to dodge it long enough to say " help!" I'll dare try it again in the morning...
