  When I opened the podcast episode, the “View transcript” button was obscuring the beginning of the description. After I scrolled to the bottom and then to the top again, it was fixed.

  Is this something that you see consistently in the app? Or are you unable to recreate it now?

  Also, could you tell us a bit more about your setup?

  • Device model
  • Operating system version
  • Pocket Casts app version

  That may help us recreate it on our end.

  Hi there, @dserodio! Thanks for the update! I tested this but wasn’t able to reproduce the issue. Do you happen to have any special phone settings active, like a display zoom, or a large font? Does the issue persist if you clear cache and restart the device?

  This happens to me CONSTANTLY, about every second or third episode I click on the description is obscured. I came looking for a way to turn the transcript button off since I’m never going to use it and it just seems like another thing AI is being forced into. Looks like there’s no solution though.

  Hi, @alexisshambrook! That does sound annoying! I haven’t been able to replicate this issue on my testing device. If you haven’t done so yet, please up date to the latest version of the app.
  
  It’s not possible to deactivate the transcript feature right now, but we do have a feature request for this. I’ve added your vote!
  
  If you still need help please reach out in the app. Go to Profile > Help & feedback > Contact Support > Get Support. If possible, please include a screenshot of how this button looks on your device.
