The running dot no longer animates, and the machinery behind it is gone rather than switched off: the shared refcounted clock, the theme-scheme prop mapping, and the extra wave color all existed only to drive it. Four affordances were tried and each failed for its own reason, which is worth writing down before someone reaches for one of them again. Fading the dot blends it toward the row's surface rather than toward black, so the bottom of every cycle was a washed-out blue that read as the success dot one row up. Dropping chroma holds brightness but turns the low point grey. Raising chroma has nowhere to go: blue at these lightnesses is already within 11% of the sRGB gamut edge, so the only real headroom is at the hue-250 cusp, which costs lightness. An expanding ring solved the color problem outright — motion cannot be confused with another hue — but stayed too subtle at a size that suits an 8pt dot sitting beside a title. If the ring is revisited: the project badge shell clips its contents to 12pt, which is what made the first attempt invisible on exactly the rows most likely to be on screen. The clip is not what makes the shell read as a knockout; its fill is.
Welcome to your Expo app 👋
This is an Expo project created with create-expo-app.
Get started
-
Install dependencies
npm install -
Start the app
npx expo start
In the output, you'll find options to open the app in a
- development build
- Android emulator
- iOS simulator
- Expo Go, a limited sandbox for trying out app development with Expo
You can start developing by editing the files inside the app directory. This project uses file-based routing.
Get a fresh project
When you're ready, run:
npm run reset-project
This command will move the starter code to the app-example directory and create a blank app directory where you can start developing.

Dictation debugging
Set EXPO_PUBLIC_ENABLE_AUDIO_DEBUG=1 before running npx expo start to render the in-app audio debug card. Pair it with the server-side STT_DEBUG_AUDIO_DIR flag so every dictation includes a copyable path to the saved raw audio file.
