Pull to Refresh is too slow and too long travel

[feinstein]

I was trying the Flutter Gallery App and comparing its Pull to Refresh with other apps (like Gmail), I can clearly see that Flutter's Pull to Refresh needs to be pulled for a much longer distance and once activated the spinning animation is slower than the native one.

I suggest you make it like the original, since long dragging distances and slow animations reflect on poor user experience.

Those things are hard to compare, but I also believe the thickness of the spinning circle is thinner.

One more thing (this might be a bug on the Gallery App and not the widget itself), the widget locks if it's spinning and you change to another app, like Chrome and then you go back to the gallery app.

Hi @feinstein
Is this issue still valid?
Thank you

[feinstein]

@TahaTesser Looking at the Facebook App as a reference for the Native behavior and the Flutter Gallery App for the Flutter behavior, then yes, it's still valid.

I'm assuming you meant material design on Android based on your description?

[feinstein]

Yes, that's correct. Just compare it with the Gmail App on Android and you will see they don't match.
