I’ve recently noticed this on an especially well used app I have on my iPhone 14 with a stupid animation which regularly annoys me.
Google Authenticator’s filter box, when you tap it there is a very noticeable delay after tapping the filter box and the keyboard showing.
And what makes it worse is that if you switch away from the app, it auto clears the filter.
This isn’t a complex app and it’s slow at doing a use case easily performed millions of times a day.
This is why I do not use any google apps and deleted my google anccount. Their shitty software pisses me off.
Every time I try to use it, the UI elements shift around as I try an action as simple as activating a search box. But it is just laggy enough that you click on something a second time, since it apparently didn’t activate the first time. But by then it’s shifted everything around and you are either cancelling what you were doing, or you are taken off into some new workflow you didn’t want.
The absolute WORST is when you focus the search box and it shifts to the top of the screen. With lag, you click on the search box again, but now where it was is a list of completion suggestions and you are taken off to some search result page you never asked for.
It’s fucking infuriating and I won’t entertain it.
