Description:

There is no way to close Unlock screen with a device gesture or back button

Preconditions

• Make sure device unlock is enabled. You can enable PIN option.
• Sync is already enabled

Steps to Reproduce

1. Launch Brave > Tree-dot menu > Settings
2. Sync > Observe PIN screen to unlock the device
3. Tap Cancel > Try to go back to a previous Settings screen > Observe that the gesture is not working
4. The other way to repro it > Go to Logins & Passwords in Brave settings
5. Tap on any saved account > Tap Password > Reveal or Copy > Cancel PIN unlock > Observe the same issue

Actual result:

There is no way to close "Unlock" screen with a device gesture if the user chooses to cancel the device unlock. There is no back button on the UI as well. The only way to hide that Unlock screen is to close/hide and open Brave again.
