Bug Description

When trying to view an app preview, and the phone has a really weak connection (the indicator says it has a connection, but it fails to actually load anything) the app preview just shows a loading indicator, and never seems to display anything. In fact, when I left it in this state for about a minute it caused a unity crash. This stops the user doing anything in the app preview, such as uninstalling an app.

One idea would be to immediately display the offline content, and then load the online content after, ensuring that the options to uninstall and open is functioning correctly the whole time.

Obviously, unity shouldn't crash either.
