11. Sorry for the delay

You reply came right when I was leaving. I'm home now, thank you for waiting

The EDIT REC AND REPLY buttons are okay on my android phone and my Dell laptop.
The tablet is called K116_M Some kind of Android I bought on Amazon. I hold it horizontally when I use it (landscape)
On the tablet, I have a REC button on the top left side On the lower left of an OP, I can see signature lines and below that:
INFO TRASH BOOKMARK
SHARE ALERT POWERS (grayed out)
.
On the lower right side, I see # replies, # views
Under all current responses to the OP, there is a bar that says "Reply to this Discussion"
There are reply buttons to all of the replies to the OP, just not on the OP itself.

I'm pretty sure that I was able to reply to posts yesterday at my daughter's house on her network, and then I noticed the option was gone. I prefer using the tablet to the phone for most replies, because of the larger keyboard and screen, so I'm pretty sure I was using it for responses.

Now that I am home, I still don't have a Reply button on the tablet. I logged out and logged back in, but that didn't change anything. I restarted the tablet and logged back in, but no change.

I hope it is just a quirk on my tablet and not something that is a glitch for DU. I appreciate your taking the time to ask about it
