Those buttons get removed on mobile devices and replaced with a slightly different set that allows us to place the rec count inside the Rec button.

This can be simulated by opening an OP in a desktop browser window and shrinking the width of the window as far as it will go to the left. You'll see the site transition to a mobile layout, but those buttons will just disappear. That's because the removal of the buttons is controlled by the size of the viewable area, but the replacement of the buttons is controlled specifically by detecting a mobile device.

So in that simulated example, the buttons are removed (because of the size of the window) but the software doesn't know to replace them (because a desktop browser window is not a mobile device).

What's unusual in your case is that the software *should* detect your phone as a mobile device and replace the buttons, but for some reason it's not doing that. We had one similar instance during a previous round of testing where this happened to someone with an Android device, so it's not Apple specific.

The bug hunt continues...
