iPhones with no home button show horizontal bar icon over controls making them difficult to use in PWA mode

Modern iPhones generally no longer have a home button. This began with the iPhone X at the end of 2017.

Instead of a home button, a horizontal bar icon is displayed at the bottom of the screen and the user swipes up to mimic pressing a home button.

When finPOWER Connect Cloud is running in PWA mode (i.e., a link to finPOWER Connect Cloud has been sent to the home screen) on these devices, this horizontal bar was drawn over the bottom of the view icons making it difficult to scroll them (if there were too many to fit on the screen) and also to select them.

When running directly from Safari, this is not an issue since the browser navigation buttons appear at the very bottom of the screen.

A new style has now been applied to these devices adding additional padding to the button of the view icons bar making it easier to scroll and ensuring the horizontal bar does not overlay the icons.

NOTE: iPhones with a home button are still being made, e.g., the 2020 SE, hence this styling is only applied to iPhones where the screen resolution matches that of a model with no home button.
