Star Wars Official App: The "Cancel" button disappeared from the social share menu

Stars Wars official app (version 3.1.0.12)
Date: 07/10/2019

Description:

This is a bug that reproduces inside of the Star Wars official app on both an iPhone and an iPad Mini.

There's an odd bug with the official Star Wars app. There's a share option for some of the content in the app - this share option is often in the upper right hand corner of the screen. This allows the user to share certain content from the app to social media. 

With the official Star Wars app, if the user chooses certain options, the text of the "Cancel" option isn't present. It's not that functionality of the button does not work - it's that the text of the word "Cancel" is not physically readable.

This occurs on both the pop-up for "Mail" and "Messenger" - very odd! 

Please see the attached screenshots. 

Note: this is an usual bug that I have only previously seen with the Costco app. They quickly fixed the problem. 



Steps to Reproduce:

1. Download and launch the official Star Wars app (version 3.1.0.12)
2. Enter in your age
3. Check the "I have read and agreed to the Terms of Use" check box
4. Select "SKIP"
5. From the home page - click on something like "Official News"
6. Head to any page with a social share option in the upper right hand corner of the screen 
7. Choose either the "Mail" or "Messenger" 
8. Note the lack of "Cancel"

Result: The word "Cancel" is missing from the e-mail and Facebook Messenger pop-ups for social social sharing with the official Star Wars app 

Expected: The word "Cancel" should always appear on the e-mail and Facebook Messenger pop-ups for social sharing from within the official Star Wars app 

Select the share option (like the one in the upper right hand corner)...

When you choose an option like e-mail sharing, the pop-up lacks a "Cancel" button...

The Facebook Messenger sharing pop-up also lacks the "Cancel" button.
