Threads app issues for iOS

I've noticed the following:
I can't see the post button when composing a new thread, replying to someone's post, or when in a direct message. This is with using voiceover as is or with screen recognition.
Also, the follow button is only visible on someone's profile when using screen recognition.
Anyone else having these issues or know of work arounds?

Posting on the web works as expected so I've isolated that these are Threads app issues itself.

[Edited to add the follow button issue and to expand the post button visibility issue to direct messages as well.]

I'm also experiencing the same bug. Unfortunately, the latest update hasn't fixed the problem.

Hello, I’m glad someone posted about this because I’ve been having the same issue as well! I’ve also been having another issue, but I don’t think this is VoiceOver related because I think people who can see are having the same problem! When you first create the account using your Instagram, you can follow everyone on Instagram who has threads! But afterwards, once you start following more people on Instagram there’s no way to follow them on threads! There is no button that says follow Instagram followers or something like that! Like I said, though, I don’t think this is a voice over issue!

First post updated to elaborate a bit. Might as well keep a running tally of issues if anyone else notices them.
