Display issue ?

[gitan_reel]

Hi ,
I noticed an issue with the display of my Nokia 7.1
the edges of the display look cropped, I mean that text or photos look cut off.
1- the screenshot in the first photo from facebook app shows obvious cropping on the left side (the word Sony)
2-second screenshot from eBay app, see the word lens is missing the letter S
3-third screenshot from Instagram stories, both emoticons are cropped.
4-the last photo shows a screenshot on the left with cropped green leaf,
and on the right, a screenshot sent to me from the account owner the leaf is not as cropped as what I see .

my display size in display setting is on Default !

I contacted Nokia support through the app in the phone, they asked me to do a soft reset, reset app preferences.

nothing solved the issue,

any suggestion, are you facing the same issue ?

My understanding is that this is caused by the aspect ratio (this phone is 18:9). A lot of apps have not been updated on Android to support this natively, which is why you see the cut off edges on images in things like Instagram or Snapchat.

I agree fully with Ansago. I see this in eBay and Instagram (not to the extremes your screenshots show but it is there) and I was also under the impression that it is the long form factor of the screen not playing well with cell padding in the app designs. I tried to alter a lot of settings like display size and keyboard height but nothing was changing the text wrap cut off when I found a few examples. I think because it is limited to so few apps that it is on the app programmers to fix the issue.
