Description

It would be nice that I could log into the Android app while offline because it's just impossible to always have internet and I've already had a few occurrences where I couldn't read a message I needed to, which is annoying.

Research direction

The issue identifies the Android app and requests offline login, but names no files, tests, or entry points. First clarify the expected offline behavior and security constraints, then locate the Android login flow and establish tests for login and message access without connectivity. Done means the agreed offline behavior works without internet access.
