I thought that my QuickDic installation was experiencing #101, but it actually was downloading the files - I just did not understand that "X" meant "Cancel". On Android 9, the top status bar did not show the download icon until I pulled the notification list down, which added to my confusion.

I think that showing an animation instead of the "X" would be better. Alternatively, simply show "Downloading...".

Showing "Downloading..." has the 2 issues of not saying what the button does and taking up too much space.
I don't disagree the X is not very nice, but I've not thought of a clearly better solution that is little effort to implement (I will admit I am not very good at coming up with UI ideas though).
For what it's worth, not showing the download icon seems like yet another vendor-specific Android issue, it is there on my phone with Android 9 and on the emulator.
