 This is a small UX quirk that can frustrate/confuse new users, especially
 those who are unfamiliar with Tor and are curious about the log. When you
 open the log in Tor Browser on Android it fills up the entire screen and
 if the user presses the back button on their device the app will close.
 Generally when a screen is filled on Android pressing back takes you to
 the previous screen. I think little things could instill distrust in newer
 users.

 This issue used to exist in Orbot a few years ago

 I apologize if this isn't the correct spot to report this. I'm new to
 trac, and am open to feedback if there's a better spot to file this :)
 Also, I've implemented a fix and I'm still figuring out where to push my
 code and put it up for review... <3
