I have verified that the bug is not already awaiting release

Yes

What was the Problem?

When using the mobile app on a foldable device in the multitasking view (ie 2 apps together) audiobookshelf does not take into account the multitasking bar at the bottom and the bottom section of the app layout is hidden/unreachable. See screenshot attached.
Just to clarify further, this happens when the taskbar is fixed to show, if the taskbar is hidden then there are no scaling issues
Once the taskbar is fixed, audiobookshelf does not account for it and remains "behind" it while other apps as shown in the screenshot rescale to account for it.
A similar bug has been closed https://github.com/advplyr/audiobookshelf-app/issues/1564#issue-3024659404

Steps to Reproduce the Issue

  1. To have a foldable phone (mine is the Google Pixel Fold)
  2. Open audiobookshelf alongside another application
  3. Have the multitask bar fixed to always show

What was Expected?

The application to scale the layout to within the space of the multitasking view

Phone Model

Google Pixel Fold (original)

Phone OS

Android 16 Build BP2A.250605.031.A2

Audiobookshelf App Version

Android App - 0.9.81

Additional Notes

I'm on the 0.9.81-beta version
