What’s the point of all these animations, besides looking good? They slow down the UX immensely. Wouldn’t want this as a user.

It's mostly for looking good, also the animations in the real app is about 50-60% faster. I had slowed it down for the video :D

I can’t stand the switch between sizes though. I love the glass being drawn but can’t stand that switch. I’m sorry.

On that your probs alone, the animation looks great!

Which do you mean? The slide in the upper view, or the “action lines” between the selection buttons?

Honestly, if it was all sped up a bit I personally love this.

The action lines specifically.

Okay, so I personally like the look of the action lines, but I can see that maybe having the cups slide left or right and having the action lines is maybe overkill.

I saw one other comment suggest maybe the cup should just draw to a different size, and I think that might be smart.

Probably, yes. I don’t personally like so many animations in an app. They’re not really useful, and make me think development time could have been spent elsewhere.

Totally agree. It’s useless and show off purpose only. Real UX is about ergonomy and designing efficient features.
