I have verified that the bug is not already awaiting release

Yes

What was the Problem?

If my phone is having difficulty connecting to my server, the AA app will display the Download Tab and show any audiobooks locally on my phone but there doesn't appear to be a way to navigate away from that tab once my phone has successfully connected to my server.

Steps to Reproduce the Issue

disable wifi and/or cellular connection.
connect to AA and activate ABS app
app will open to Download
enable WIFI and/or cellular connection.

What was Expected?

App should automatically connect to server and update the AA display and allow user to 'browse' away from Download tab

Phone Model

galaxy S22

Phone OS

android stock

Audiobookshelf App Version

Android App - 0.11.0

Installation Source

Google Play Store
