I agree, this crossed my mind. Originally it was an internal debug menu for maintainers to report bugs we found, but I reasoned it might be of use for other users to report issues they themselves find in comments. I'll update the wording, thank you.

Have you checked inside the hamburger menu? It was moved into there. Also, what color theme are you using?
If you're on a narrow mobile device, it was moved into the hamburger menu on the left hand side. Will update the help files to clarify this.
My pleasure! Hopefully the mystery is solved now.
Hmm, thank you for the data point. If you are rotating your phone, it's going into the "desktop view" and the wrench will be on the far right. As of 2.0.6, the wrench should be in the hamburger menu on the upper left. Can you try tapping that and looking inside to see if you find the wrench in there now?
We haven't been approached by the author of the tool for integration, but we could probably port it ourselves after making some infrastructural adjustments. I believe that script has a lot of its own internal functionality (with respect to how settings are stored/saved/etc.), so may have to be rejiggered a bit.
May I ask what mobile phone you are using? There is a hotfix live now that should move the wrench icon into the hamburger menu if the viewport is too small.
Take a look at this thread, think we have the smoking gun here after putting the pieces together and looking at what is different in your setups. It seems to be a totally cosmetic issue: KES is loading, but the wrench icon got buried in the attenuated navbar on mobile view. This explains why it worked on tablet Safari but not for users on phones. This should be easy to fix now that we know the scope of the problem.
If you're on >=2.0.0, the wrench icon will show a notification symbol if there is an update, then you can open KES and click the "install update" button through there. If you're below 2.0.0, there is no wrench notification, but you'll see an "install update" button if there is one available when you open the main KES menu. Otherwise, if you haven't interacted with KES in 24 hours, most script managers download updates in the background, but the consistency is a bit spotty. It probably won't be out for another week or so, it is a biggish release incorporating many new add-ons, as seen here: https://github.com/aclist/kbin-kes/milestone/4
Good news, got this working as you requested and it is going into the next release. Hides threads on the fly and saves that permanently for later. Also restores previously hidden threads on the page if you disable it, and resets the storage. It works rather well! Need to optimize some stuff, but otherwise it is good to go.
Did you post the wrong image? Your screenshot is an image of the kbin settings sidebar. There should be a close button, home button, and wrench button when you open the hamburger menu.
