Hey there @AgnikDas,

Thanks for posting in the Community and welcome.

If you haven’t yet, we’d suggest you perform a clean reinstall of the app. By doing that, the app can be up-to-date and you can make sure the cache is not leading to this behavior.

Just to confirm, have you recently changed the tablet’s font style and size? If yes, we’d suggest you set it to its default to see if you notice any difference. You can follow this Samsung guide to do it.

On another note, are you using any UI launchers? If yes, we’d recommend going back to the default launcher for your tablet as well to see how it goes.

Keep us in the loop!

No I am not using any UI launchers

My font is also Samsung's Default Font and Font size

I have deleted the app and then reinstalled it

Also I think the problem might be the Screen zoom

When using the default Screen zoom setting which is 2 as shown in the screenshot the words are misplaced

While reducing the screen zoom by 1 seems to fix that issue but it make everything else Small and honestly it makes it hard to use

I really wish you can help resolve this issue cause I want to stick to the default Screen zoom which is 2

Sorry for the late reply and thank you for answering my initial report

Hey @AgnikDas,

Thank you for sharing the additional details!
Have you tried resizing the widget when using the default zoom setting of the tablet? A widget box larger than 1x1 should display things differently.

Let us know how it goes! We'll be on the lookout 🙂

if you mean this sure but again that's not a 1x1 anymore

Also I got an iPad pro where the 1x1 widget looks better

Hey again @AgnikDas,

Thank you for checking if the issue is only present when the smallest widget box is used.

Although we can't commit to a specific timeframe in which this will be addressed, we've passed down the info so that our folks backstage can take a look into it 🙂

We're here for you if there's anything else in the meantime. Cheers!
