Translator works, Browser Extension issue

Hello.

The translations are good, but after the recent update on mobile (at least the iPad version) the pop up browser extension for settings, tools, and login has shrunk. Compressing in on itself. I can no longer click on the switch to translate.

Amazing translation

It’s worth the price a response team is very good. I’ve been using this for years now.

Not sure if I'm missing something?

I'm on tier two upgrade and for some reason, all my longform pages only translate one to two manga panels, then the little strawberries just spin in the corner for the rest. I've sat for only over ten minutes before and it never translated. I did try multiple different mangas. I feel like this is a great app but there's something stunting it for me :/
