Animation journey: MotionLayout chapter.

on YouTube ↗13m

" summary

Disney+ uses MotionLayout across mobile, tablet and TV for a year and reports concrete wins and failures: adoption spans alpha 3 to beta 4, sub‑elements and ignoreVisibility fixes improve readability and visibility handling, but production problems force removal from mobile — empty TextView width resets, integration with legacy view property animator and RecyclerView plus a reactive architecture cause an infinite rebind loop and errant setTransition calls, listeners sometimes never return clean 0 or 1; TV and tablet keep MotionLayout and rotation preserves progress.
