Good but one small thing annoying me

The game is adfree unless you choose to watch something and is otherwise very enjoyable. But there is a glitch in the upgrade section where instead of a new upgrade it will be a white box. The thing is, I’m pretty sure there are upgrades underneath it that I just can’t click on because of the big white box covering there place. Any fix?
