Remove animation from share menu

fo0bar — Sun, 03 Mar 2024 17:52:13 GMT

When you choose to share a song, the app pops up a little share menu, and it does a bounce animation. This animation does nothing but make this menu harder to use. You have to wait until it finishes to be able to select any of the options, which is slow and incredibly annoying. It is cute fr maybe the first time you see it, but every subsequent time, it is nothing but pure obstruction. Please remove it.

Hey there @fo0bar,

Thanks for reaching out about this here in the Community. We moved your post from the Ideas board to the relevant Help board, where it fits better.

The animation when sharing shouldn't slower the app. In this case, it's well worth running a clean reinstall of the app to get rid of any cached files that might be causing trouble.

If the issue persists, would you mind sending us a short screen recording of this happening so we can take a closer look? You can attach it to your next response by using the Insert Video option in the post editor. You can also upload it to Google Drive and share the link with us (make sure the video has the permissions for anyone to see it).

We'll be on the lookout.

You misunderstand the issue. It is not due to the app lagging, it is because you can't click on any of the buttons in the share screen while the popup is jiggling around during its initial animation. It is 100% due to design decisions, not app performance. See the area I circled in the video.
