- andrewingram 8y agoGyroscope is one of those apps that's extremely aesthetically pleasing, but I'm always reluctant to use as an example of React Native. Mainly because none of the interactions feel "right". It's always reminded me of those highly polished Flash websites that look amazing, but something always seems off when you use them. From the screenshots Bitesnap looks nice, but I can't seem to download it in the UK.
- flanbiscuit 8y agocurious what you mean by not feeling right or seeming off? Those are very vague reasons. I'm not a user of this app, nor a developer.
- andrewingram 8y agoTo be honest, it's a vague feeling. Similar to the uncanny valley of special effects in movies. There's a lot of UI elements that have the appearance of (heavily-stylised) native ones, but not the behaviour. You can't swipe back on screen transitions, tapping the selected tab icon doesn't scroll the screen to top, everything feels almost imperceptibly sluggish. Lots of little things like these.
