Proposal

Please re-state the problem that we are trying to solve in this issue.

On Confirm task page, a long description takes the page height, and Confirm task button is not visible, and the page is not scrollable

What is the root cause of that problem?

We haven't used ScrollView for the confirm task page.

App/src/pages/tasks/NewTaskPage.js

Line 153 in 468dd6c

<View style={[styles.mt5, styles.containerWithSpaceBetween]}>

What changes do you think we should make in order to solve the problem?

Replace View with the ScrollView here and use contentContainerStyle prop with it.

App/src/pages/tasks/NewTaskPage.js

Line 153 in 468dd6c

<View style={[styles.mt5, styles.containerWithSpaceBetween]}>
