[usability] calendar in new transaction screen forces user to wait

Open klaviartur opened this issue 11 months ago • 3 comments

When switching between months using the arrows in the calendar inside new transaction screen, you have to wait for the month changing animation to finish before you can change it again.

If I want to go from march to january, I want to tap the arrow twice in rapid succession and be done instead i have to tap once, wait for animation to finish (or rage tap the arrow with no effect ;) ) and then tap again.

This gets more frustrating with more months to skip, of course.

@klaviartur Did you try to change month by swipe gesture? I suppose that should feel less frustrating, because every gesture is taken into account, and it does not seem to much slower than tapping the arrow.

Thanks for the hint. This works. Now it's up to my muscle memory to adapt. :)

Still, it's no good for a speed run, but I guess there is some value in decelerating life 😉
