Description
**To Reproduce**
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
1. Start a chat with someone (might need to be on a different home server, dunno)
2. Notice the black shield overlay on their profile picture
3. Tap profile picture to see what it means
4. You get on a page with "Security - Messages are end-to-end encrypted" and "Settings", "Notifications", "2 people" etc.
5. Tap again on the black shield, still trying to see what it means
6. You'll see a full-screen profile image (a different one in my case, whatever)
7. Go back, pick every option in frustration, finally tap "2 people"
8. You get a list of the room participants
9. Tap again on the person name
10. You see a screen quite similar to the one two steps back. It has the E2E notice again, "Direct message" etc. and a "Verify" option
11. Finally tap Verify, but the verification seems to be synchronous, so you can't use the app anymore unless you cancel or they happen to be online
