What animation program do most developers or designers use for adding animations to their apps?
I am a graphic/UI designer and have been working with XCode lately to develop an app. I would like to add animations to buttons, menus, and even full blown instructional animations for the user on how to use our products. I have used CoreAnimator, Adobe Animate and struggled with both. Adobe animate has issues with sizing for different devices and I have been working with them for months now trying to resolve the issue as it doesn't seem to be the constraints in Xcode.
I am not the best at coding but I am willing to learn. Do I need to learn Core Animation code to be able to animate buttons menus etc? Or are libraries easier?
As for the full blown instructional animations I feel like that would be more a long the lines of something similar to Adobe Animate?
TIA!
Which UI framework are you using? UIKit or SwiftUI? I have no knowledge of Adobe Animate, but you may need to learn and find what would be the iOS way of animating. Learning Core Animation APIs will help you constructing animations, but in most simple cases, using animations in iOS apps is far more simple. You can find many tutorials or guides searching with "ios animation". Or to get more specific results, "ios uikit animation" or "ios swiftui animation". Better try one of them and post more specific issues you experience.
What type of animation do you look for ? Flash button, color change, size change, morphing effects ? All those are very easy to do with UIView.animate(withanimate(withDuration:animations:). Or are you looking for more sophisticated ones ?
