It happens only for the mobile mode. Is it possible to hear some suggestions on how to fix it? I guess we need to somehow reduce the size of it so it could break somehow.

I am not seeing the scrolling option on a mobile device. When I use a mobile view in my desktop browser I do see the scroll. Here is a screenshot from my phone.
