Is Reader Mode impossible to be triggered when the phone is in portrait orientation?

more options

I find it almost impossible since the trigger area is so small and a tap on the book icon always brings me to the url page (the place where you edit the url or search something). My workaround now is to turn the phone to the landscape orientation and so the url bar becomes longer, and therefore the icon is easier to be tapped correctly.

I hope you can fix this by enlarging the trigger area or something. Thank you.

We fixed that in Firefox 23, We made the tappable area for reader much larger :)
