Issue description

Hello everyone,

I have an application customizer with a button rendered in a bottom placeholder. The button renders perfectly fine everywhere, including search results page, when accessed from a browser on desktop and mobile (iOS Safari). However, it does not appear on the search results page on SharePoint Mobile app.

Is this an expected behavior? if so, why? Any solution/guidance here would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!
