Why are Facebook comments split on my iPad Pro?

The Facebook comments on my iPad Pro are split into two columns and I can’t read the right column. It’s a split screen, but not the type of split screen that you can slide left or right to make a full screen snd there are no 3 vertical buttons to click on to go to full screen. In addition, my iPad settings indicate that I have full screen in effect. I tried to contact Facebook about this but got no response. Please look at the screen shot I’m posting. Can you help? Please!

Yes, it started a few weeks ago - maybe 3 or 4 weeks ago. I’ve written to Facebook and got no response. I can try Apple but doubt they would know since only happens on Facebook. I wish someone knew what to do.

I’d love to know the answer to this problem. It doesn’t happen to all my Facebook comments but often enough to drive me mad.

If you find a solution, please let me know. Aside from turning the entire iPad sideways, I know of no other way of seeing the full screen. I was hoping someone would know.

This very same issue started for me about two weeks ago as well. Did this just started happening to you recently as well?

Thanks for the suggestions, Nick. I tried swiping up on my iPad to force quit the application but it didn’t work. I considered deleting the Facebook app on my iPad and then reinstalling it but I received a warning that I would lose all my data so I didn’t want to try that. I also tried accessing Facebook on my browser but it was worse there. I got three screens! I have no problem on my iPhone and no problem on my computer. It’s just on my iPad and it’s so frustrating. Thank you for trying to help.
