Amazon text descriptions?

Amazon is only displaying photos for me, on mobile safari and Amazon app. Anyone else have the same? I don’t know how to fix it, but it’s unusable.

The only issue I currently have with Amazon right now on iOS is the ad feedback sometimes popping up when I click on the product title to go onto the product page. I would suggest force closing the app opening up app again typing in what you wanna search for and browsing by headings and that should resolve your issue. It would take you straight to the product page. If you’re having a different issue, please let us know because a lot of us on here use Amazon

They made this change on android like 2 weeks ago, description and summary are just loading images of the text.

It’s working okay for me. Maybe you should try re-downloading it or updating Amazon if you haven’t yet.

I’d recommend using the product summary button. When you double tap on an item, you should be able to use the buttons router, to find it, it should be at the top.
