2) Magic sign in Failure

• Create a new account
• Background, but do not kill the app
• Tap the magic sign in deep -ink
• After setting a password, you should be taken to the LHN, but the FAB will not be shown! ❌

3) Admin chat failure

• Sign in to an account without an open workspace
• Tap the fab button, and create a workspace
• Await the Notification from the support team member
• Do not kill the app
• Tap this notification
• You might be taken to the LHN (known, separate issue)
• Swipe right to the chat
• It should be the #admins chat, but is often an entirely different chat ❌

Commented here. I believe this isn't worth fixing and will cease to be a problem after we rework our app navigation.
