uilt on react-native-reanimated v4 with react-native-gesture-handler. The slider and its blur both live inside react-native-keyboard-controller's OverKeyboardView, which is the only way to draw over the keyboard on both platforms — anywhere else in the view tree the keys stay sharp above the blur. Pan handling is pure worklets with no runOnJS, so a drag never touches the JS thread; the knob, fill, tick dots, gauge needle and the level label all read one shared value, and the only JS hop is a single scheduleOnRN on release. Open and close are the same interpolation run in opposite directions, so interrupting mid-flight reverses instead of snapping, and the springs are expressed as mass/stiffness/damping fitted to a reference recording. The gauge is drawn in react-native-svg so it can track a drag continuously. Platform notes: the label is driven through an animated TextInput on iOS and a plain Text on Android (an EditText text write skips Yoga re-measure and clips mid-close); expo-blur is disabled on Android, where the OverKeyboardView is a separate window panel with nothing behind it to snapshot, and a translucent scrim is used instead; Liquid Glass via expo-glass-effect is used on iOS 26+ with a solid-surface fallback below that. Requires a dev build (expo run:ios / run:android) — not Expo Go. Verified on Expo SDK 56 / React Native 0.85, iPhone 16 Pro simulator on iOS 26.5.
A ChatGPT-style reasoning-effort picker: the gauge icon in the chat composer morphs into a full-width slider that floats above the keyboard, behind a progressive blur. Press the track to jump to the nearest stop, drag the knob freely, and release to snap — the gauge arc and needle follow the drag continuously. Drop it into any chat or AI composer screen that needs an inline model / effort selector.
A pixel-accurate recreation of the shimmering dot placeholder ChatGPT shows while generating an image: a static grid of dots lit by invisible orbs that take turns blooming, drifting, and dissolving across the card. Ships with the cycling typewriter status label ("Sketching it out", "Polishing details"…) so you can drop a complete generating-state card into any AI or long-running-task screen.
A Telegram-style capture button whose microphone glyph morphs into a video camera on tap, with a springy pop under the finger and a liquid-glass circular surface. Every stroke is interpolated on the UI thread, so the mic cradle rises into the camera housing and the capsule head rounds into a lens in one continuous outline. Drop it into a chat composer, a recorder screen, or anywhere you need an audio/video capture toggle.
A pixel-matched recreation of Telegram's attachment menu: the paperclip button in the input bar morphs into a full liquid-glass bottom sheet, then drags between detents or flicks away to dismiss. Ships eight cross-faded panes (photo grid, text, file, location, poll, checklist, audio, contact) behind a scrolling native UISegmentedControl. Drop it into any RN/Expo chat screen that needs a real attachment picker.
