    		 Empty state text does not wrap in mobile apps for iPhones When there is a long empty state text (max value 100 characters) for a list applet, it does not wrap properly on iPhones. An iPad is large enough, and this works properly for Android.

    2. Integrate into any specific applet launcher.
    3. Set the empty state for the list applet to something long (max value) and save.
    4. Authenticate in one of the mobile apps where the applet is loaded on an iPhone.
    5. Navigate to the applet and open it.

    Notice that the empty text extends across the width of the screen and does not wrap.
