Hello Howdoyou367,


Thank you for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.


We understand your new iPad cuts off text on the left while using Safari.


We can help point you in the right direction.


You can decrease the font size in Safari to see if that helps. For the appropriate steps, please follow the section in the article below that says, "Change text size, display, and website settings."


Browse the web using Safari on iPad


On iPad, Safari shows a website’s desktop version that’s automatically scaled for the iPad display and optimized for touch input.

Use the View menu to increase or decrease the text size, switch to Reader view, specify privacy restrictions, and more.

To open the View menu, tap the Website Options button on the left side of the search field, then do any of the following:

*Change the font size: Tap the large A to increase the font size or tap the small A to decrease it.
*View the webpage without ads or navigation menus: Tap Show Reader View (if available).
*Hide the search field: Tap Hide Toolbar (tap the top of the screen to get it back).
*View the mobile version of the webpage: Tap Request Mobile Website (if available).
*Set display and privacy controls for each time you visit this website: Tap Website Settings.


We recommend the steps above because they will show you how to adjust the text size on your iPad via Safari to have a better viewing experience.


If you’re still experiencing the same issue, we suggest that you check out the links below.
