Yep on the mobile settings. It isn't reading, photo displays, etc. It is the small touch screen for typing for the most part. Arthritic thumbs and carpal tunnel (surgery in a month or two) don't help.

Just read and make short comments.
I love the convenience though of browsing on my phone as I wait for appointments, or during lulls at work etc. It totally makes up for the hassle.
