Constantly getting "Orbot/I2P Not Installed" popup

Description

This happens if either Tor or I2P proxying is enabled and the indicated app is not installed.
You get a popup saying "Proxying through Orbot/I2P will not work unless the Orbot/I2P app is installed." despite having access to both networks. It becomes really annoying as it constantly bombards you each time you switch from something else back to Privacy Browser, turn off and on the screen, open and close Guide/About/Domains/etc.
A way to fix this would be to offer an option to "Never show this again".

Thank you for opening a separate bug report.

In this case, this is the desired behavior. Both the Tor and the I2P proxy options are integrated with Orbot or the I2P app, respectively. If you would like to use a different provider for these network, or would like to use either of these apps without any type of popup integration, just use the custom proxy option. The custom proxy option assumes the user has taken care of making sure the proxy is ready to handle data.
