Description

Describe the Bug

When you try to change app passcode on an iphone the app hangs and stops working, I think this is because of the 2 modals opening back to back the first one for validating the user and second one for changing passcode

Steps to Reproduce
  1. Go to settings
  2. opens Security and privacy
  3. Set a passcode if you don't have one
  4. Try to change it

Research direction

Start by reproducing the passcode-change flow in Settings > Security and privacy on an iPhone 13 running iOS 18, using the reported Rocket.Chat app and server versions. Trace the validation and passcode-change modal sequence; done means changing the passcode completes without the app hanging.
