To address this, we've broken down many longer articles into smaller logical steps and provided Previous and Next buttons at the bottom of articles to naviga...
To build a great experience on mobile devices, tablets, and PCs like you asked for on UserVoice, we switched to a responsive layout. Clicking the Options button will expand/collapse to show the same options on a desktop view.
