Graceful handling of lack of internet connectivity in mobile app

[bedeho]

Right now, if you open the app while your connection is down, it totally breaks, also, if the app is already open, and you try to do something, like navigate, same happens.

I hope there are some cheap tricks that at least can avoid it breaking totally, so user is informed what issue is, and they can chose to either wait until they have internet again, or turn on connection if that is under their control. I hope there are best practices around this, for example what Electron apps do.
