Describe the problem
I tried to connect to my netbird instance from the Android app. I pressed the button and upon seeing the login-page(browser window) i switched to my password manager to copy my password. After returning to the netbird app the browser window was gone and i needed to wait for a long time (~60-120s) until i got a "deadline exceeded" error.

Expected behavior
The app should be able to detect that the browser window was closed prematurely or (even better) the browser window should survive changing to another app and back.

Another workaround could be shortening the deadline or adding a button to cancel the sso login.
