The -only- time I experience it infuriatingly is in iOS natively.

For example: on the Home Screen, open a folder, then tap outside it to bring back the Home Screen. While the animation is happening, try opening an app. It won't.

Open the camera app. Swipe between modes and press the shutter button. It won't work until the animation completes.

An especially egregious one: open messages. Tap the + sign, and tap the letter P while it's animating. I had to tap the letter 10 times before it finally started showing Ps.

The OS is riddled with them.

I wasn’t claiming that Apple apps are immune to this, or even noticeably better — just that this is very much not a OS-level limitation, and something that _can_ be accomplished.

  • One of the examples I gave is springboard behavior which is very much OS-level
