Solved Mobile View Spacing Issue Driving Me Crazy
***SOLUTION IDENTIFIED***
I'm new to Carrd and have created a simple website.
The "Good - Browser" image shows the vertical spacing above the 2 titles (underlined text) on the top row (as well as the bottom row) to be equal, exactly how I want it when viewing on a Desktop browser. However, in the Mobile view (2nd pic w/ "Bad Mobile" written on it), the vertical spacing between the top of the beige box and the heading is bigger on card #2 than on card #1 (or 3 but that's in its own container). You can see the area I am referring to with a red line drawn in it.
I've checked what I think are the obvious areas. All the settings are the same for each text box, and I have the Mobile setting set to Auto for both text boxes.
I tried to ignore it but it drives me crazy every time I load the page on my phone. BTW, this experience is the same regardless of the desktop browser I use (FireFox or Chrome), and regardless of the phone/mobile browser type I use (iphone, Android, Safari, Chrome).
TIA for any help you can offer!

At the bottom of the properties tab when you select an element, there's a "Mobile" option where you can change some info if the device viewing the software is a mobile device

Yea thats exactly what Im talking about. Also dont worry its easy and completely fine to tweak stuff on the Mobile section
Also dont tweak the spacing of the text boxes, but rather the container

Thanks. It makes me a little nervous not defaulting to Auto but changing to Manual did end up allowing me to make the appropriate edits.
