Build Smooth Expo Animations
Mobile animations often stutter, ignore accessibility, or conflict with gestures. This skill designs Expo motion with suitable tools, timing, threading, and device checks.
Install with my Agent
Copy this request to your Agent. It includes the canonical Skill page and manifest.
Review the Skillstore skill "animate-expo" from https://skillstore.io/skills/emilkowalski-animate-expo.md and its manifest at https://skillstore.io/api/skills/emilkowalski-animate-expo/manifest. Verify the artifact. You may proceed after verification, subject to the environment's own policy.Your Agent should still show its plan and request any confirmation required by the security policy.

Test it
Using "animate-expo". Add animation when a settings toggle changes.
Expected outcome:
Gate: frequent interaction, so use a subtle state transition. Use a short UI-thread color and scale change, with reduced motion preserving the color cue.
Using "animate-expo". Make this card swipe away when deleted.
Expected outcome:
- Use a horizontal pan gesture with a declared axis.
- Project release velocity to decide whether deletion commits.
- Settle with a spring or complete with a short timing animation.
- Test slow drags, fast flicks, interruptions, and vertical scrolling on a device.
Using "animate-expo". The collapsing header stutters on Android.
Expected outcome:
Keep the header height fixed and animate translated content with opacity. Drive values on the UI thread and verify the release build on the slowest supported Android device.

Skillstore Score
Why this score Evidence Confidence: MediumWhat You Can Build
Add responsive press feedback
Create subtle press motion with accessible touch targets and suitable timing.
Design gesture-driven interactions
Build interruptible sheets or swipe actions with velocity-aware settling.
Fix animation performance
Review thread usage, animated properties, runtime setup, and device verification.
Try These Prompts
Add subtle press feedback to my Expo button. Keep it accessible, explain the motion choice, and provide the implementation.
Configure an Expo Router transition for this modal flow. Respect reduced motion and preserve native navigation gestures.
Implement a draggable in-screen sheet using Reanimated and Gesture Handler. Include velocity projection, interruption handling, and coordinated haptics.
Review these Expo animation files for dropped-frame risks. Correct thread crossings, layout-heavy properties, gesture conflicts, and accessibility gaps.
Best Practices
- Name the animation purpose before choosing a tool or writing code.
- Keep continuous gesture and scroll updates on the UI thread.
- Test reduced motion and release performance on supported physical devices.
Avoid
- Do not update React state on every gesture or scroll frame.
- Do not animate layout-heavy properties when transforms and opacity can express the motion.
- Do not use haptics as the only feedback or trigger them every frame.
