Extremely difficult to use gear menu on iPad+issues

Often, tapping on the gear icon does nothing. After repeated tries I usually, eventually get the menu to come up. Zooming in doesn't seem to make it any easier to get the menu. Odd but not a problem: once the menu is open, tapping elsewhere does not make it go away.

Tapping edit works to edit the content, but there's no apparent way to select any of the other subitems (name, type...). Same for other submenus.

Once I do manage to get into edit mode, no amount of tapping seems to bring up the menu.

After getting back to view mode, again no amount of tapping seems to bring up the menu. Reloading the page makes it possible again.
