Research direction

Start by reproducing the Button animation on iOS 26.1 in the app, using both a press and rapid taps on a physical device or simulator. Trace the Button component’s press-animation behavior and compare it with the expected transition timing. Done means the interaction is smooth, stable, and does not snap, stutter, or replay unexpectedly.
