@chrispader is going to take this over (according to Slack conversation)

[mountiny]

This is purely a UI issue on Android native, not blocking the user from using the App. We are working on more holistic changes for the safe area and padding in android native

The space between offline indicator and the button is still visible. Also, the offline indicator overlaps the navigation tab of the device. Build 9.0.70-1
