UX issue with disconnect button

[Lolagatorade]

Is it a bug?

• I know this is an issue with the app, and contacting Mullvad support is not relevant.

I have checked if others have reported this already

• I have checked the issue tracker to see if others have reported similar issues.

Current Behavior

With the iPhone 13 mini as an example the disconnect button is right next to the home bar this might not have been an issue during testing since larger phones have different scaling for the icons, but in this example, when you swipe home a lot of the times the disconnect button is accidentally pressed and you disconnect the VPN leaving you exposed when you go home….

Expected Behavior

Button should be placed elsewhere or moved up higher to avoid its depression and disconnection when going home

as of now the model of the phone I am using is smaller than the width of the thumb the distance between the disconnect button and the home bar. And there is lots of free deadspace above.
