Api request time

Archived from the Bravo community forum (2021–2026). Some answers may refer to older versions of Bravo.

Hello,

More technical question.
Why does it take so long to load a detail page where it only shows text?
Did the timer is set In advance by you?
The net screen should open directly and show the data without loading and show a ghost element ( gray loader on the container where it’s not loaded) like Instagram and Facebook. This would be the best case of use.
Why not preload all requests directly or find another way the user experience is not very good with all that loading, it's a comment that I get a lot and something I'm asking since the beginning.

thanks

Hello ,
Regarding the loading time, it always depend on the API you are using. Some API take longer than others to load. The loading it's because you are calling into an API, the communication it's always happening.

About the "facebook skeleton loading" effect, you can do it right now. Using for example a Lottie element and customize each loading pages you need. i.e. Home loading will be different than Profile loading. This is possible to do, check out our sample app about custom loadings
