Description
When I disable the Threaded view in display settings, It doesn't apply to the list immediately. I should close the app and open it again to see threaded view disabled.
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- Go to Settings
- Go to General Settings
- Go to Display
- Uncheck Threaded View
- Back to the messages list
- Settings didn't apply
- We should restart the application to apply
Expected behavior
It should apply immediately after uncheck

Research direction
Start by reproducing the Settings > General Settings > Display flow on Android and trace how the Threaded View preference reaches the messages list. Done means unchecking Threaded View updates the list immediately without restarting the app; add or update a regression test if the relevant test area is found.
