Research direction

Start by locating the Merge Accounts screen and its “Phone or Email” input, then review how focus is handled when the screen opens in landscape on Android. Reproduce the reported steps on an Android device or emulator and check the existing screen tests. Done when the field receives focus in landscape mode and the behavior remains correct in portrait.
