On iPad portrait mode, the “Show Instructions” label is visually misaligned and not centered within the expand panel button.

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Navigate to https://makecode.microbit.org/beta on an iPad.
  2. Ensure the device is in portrait mode.
  3. Open any card that includes a "Show Instructions" button.
  4. Observe the alignment of the button label at the bottom of the expand panel.

Actual behavior
The “Show Instructions” text is not centered within the button and appears misaligned.

Expected behavior
The “Show Instructions” text should be horizontally centered within the button, consistent with other button labels across the UI.

Research direction

Check the button's layout and styling against other centered labels; done means the text is horizontally centered without affecting other button states or layouts.
